Annamay Hybrid tea rose pharmaROSA® NEONATAL – professional own-root propagation material
Premium own-root NEONATAL material of Annamay offers stable, bush-trained hybrid tea genetics for nurseries targeting exclusive finished product lines with strong flower quality and reliable form. With 3–5-cane framework development in 5–7 L containers as the core route, it supports predictable capacity planning and low-intervention management, thanks to its resistant disease profile and low maintenance requirement. Its mid-pink, double, rosette blooms with uniform colouring and fruity fragrance align naturally with premium retail and reseller channels, while own-root longevity underpins long-term stock stands and collection plantings. From Year 1 root establishment through Year 2 structural build to Year 3 full ornamental performance, it provides a durable, homogeneous base for repeated cropping, fitting UK nursery systems that value winter-hardy, reliable propagation material even in exposed northern and Scottish conditions.

Technical cultivar profile
| Parameter |
Data |
| Name and registration |
Annamay Hybrid tea rose pharmaROSA® is a hybrid tea group cultivar offered under the current trade name above; exhibition registration data are not provided, and no former name is recorded. |
| Origin and breeding |
Discovered and selected by PharmaRosa® in Hungary, with breeding year 2015; introduced and distributed by PharmaRosa® Ltd., with specific registration and introduction year data not provided. |
| Growth and structural characteristics |
Bushy habit, approximately 70–100 cm high with 80–110 cm spread, moderately dense mid-green glossy foliage and moderate prickliness; supplied bush-trained with 3–5 strong framework canes suited to container finishing. |
| Flower morphology |
Large, double, rosette-shaped hybrid tea flowers (approximately 2.75–3.95 in diameter), with 26–39 petals, mainly solitary on stems, remontant with a strong second flush giving good overall flowering continuity. |
| Colour data and phenology |
Clear mid-pink overall tone (ARS MP, RHS 55C outer, 57A inner), opening vivid and gradually fading to pastel with paler edges; colour retention is described as weak, with a satin sheen giving a lively light effect in sun. |
| Fragrance and aroma |
Medium-strength, noticeable fresh, fruity fragrance characteristic, giving clear scent value in close proximity; strongly double flower form reduces stamen exposure, so it is only weakly attractive for pollinating insects. |
| Hip characteristics |
Due to the double flower form, hip formation is limited; where present, hips are occasional, around 12–18 mm in diameter, with no additional data on shape or colour characteristics provided. |
| Resistance and winter hardiness |
Good resistance indicated to powdery mildew, black spot and rust, with low general intervention needs; hardy to approximately -26 to -23 °C, rated RHS H7, corresponding to Swedish Zone 4 and USDA Zone 5b. |
| Horticultural recommendations |
Recommended as a low-maintenance, disease-resistant option requiring limited interventions, supplied as pharmaROSA NEONATAL own-root, bush-trained cutting for premium container production, ideally in 5–7 litre pots. |
