Tisa™ Abundant Reka® – pharmaROSA® NEONATAL rooted cutting
Compact plants of Tisa™ Abundant Reka® provide a predictable, bush-trained structure ideal for container and bedding production on a standard 2–3 L route, supporting uniform scheduling into retail-focused nursery networks. Its remontant flowering habit delivers reliable, repeat ornamental value that aligns well with UK retailers’ demand for finished shrub roses positioned as standard finished product with reliable garden performance. The colour presentation – soft pastel yellow, fading to creamy pale tones – creates a calm, adaptable SKU for public-realm, park and edging schemes where consistent appearance matters. Medium resistance and H7 hardiness to around -23–-21 °C support production for northern and more exposed markets, offering practical alignment with Scottish and North of England schemes where winter and wind tolerance are important. Own-root NEONATAL material allows nurseries to build homogeneous, low-replacement blocks with long-lived bushes that regenerate well under production stress, fitting integrator and municipal supply chains. The foliage is dense, dark green and glossy, adding saleable value in 2–3 L containers and park-grade plantings alike, whilst the cluster-flowered, medium-sized double blooms sit cleanly above the plant for easy visual quality checks on the bench. This own-root base supports a clear development arc from Year 1 root establishment through Year 2 structural build to full ornamental value by Year 3, suitable for planned capacity across thematic rose collections and wider project work in the UK’s professional landscape sector.
