BARONNE E. DE ROTHSCHILD – pink hybrid tea rose - Meilland
This classic hybrid tea brings together elegance, fragrance and reliable flowering in a form that suits today’s busy family gardens. Large, high‑centred blooms open in rich magenta‑pink, their deep inner petals contrasting beautifully with paler, silvery undersides for instant impact in borders and around the house. Bred for quality, it repeat flowers generously from early summer, giving a steady supply of long‑stemmed blooms for cutting as well as garden display. The bush stays compact and upright, maintaining a tidy outline that works well in smaller beds, raised spots with improved drainage and traditional front gardens. Dense, glossy foliage with a dark, bronze‑green sheen adds season‑long structure, while the own‑root form builds a resilient framework for longevity. With basic care and regular watering in dry spells, you can expect strong root growth in the first year, fuller shoots in the second and confident, showpiece performance by the third.
Glossy, dense foliage with a dark bronze-green tone.

Target area
Reasoning
Front garden focal point
The upright, compact habit forms a neat, well-shaped bush that naturally keeps its outline, so it does not overwhelm small spaces or paths. Its uniform structure makes it easy to position as a single feature near the door or gate, providing an organised look without constant pruning – ideal for time-poor homeowners.
Classic rose border
Reliable repeat flowering and XL blooms mean you can count on colour throughout the season, with waves of blossoms following one another after light deadheading. This steadiness helps you achieve that traditional rose‑border feel without complex planning, suiting enthusiastic but busy beginners.
Cottage-style mixed bed
The strong damask scent and rich pink‑and‑silver colour play beautifully against looser perennials, giving a romantic cottage look with just a few well‑placed plants. Its dense foliage and upright form provide a framework that soft herbaceous companions can weave around, helping visually confident yet practical gardeners.
Around-the-house planting
Dense, glossy foliage and regular flowering mean the plant looks presentable for most of the year, even between main flushes. Planted near windows, terraces or seating areas, it offers perfume and colour where you see it most, rewarding modest care and basic feeding – reassuring for busy urban families.
Small groups in beds or borders
Planting 3–5 bushes together at the recommended spacing creates a balanced, uniform effect that is straightforward to design and maintain. The even height and growth habit make it easy to edge with lower perennials or lawn, giving a composed, tidy border that still feels lush – attractive for style‑conscious owners.
Cutting patch or cutting row
The long stems and exhibition‑quality blooms are excellent for vases, so a short row can supply the house with scented flowers all summer. Because the plant establishes steadily as an own‑root rose, it becomes a long‑term source of cut flowers with routine care rather than intensive management – appealing to creative florists.
Feature rose in improved clay or chalky soils
In many British gardens with heavier or chalky ground, raised or well‑drained spots by paths or patios suit this variety well, letting its roots develop steadily and reducing waterlogging stress. Once established, the own‑root system supports consistent growth and recovery after winter, easing worries for cautious starters.
Large decorative container (40–50 litres+)
Grown in a generous pot, its compact footprint, upright stems and repeat flowering give a long season of colour on patios or balconies. A 40–50 litre container allows enough root space for stability and moisture control, so regular watering and feeding are easy routine tasks for busy urban residents.
Styling ideas
Doorway Welcome – Place a single bush near the front step with lavender or heuchera at its feet for a fragrant, structured entrance – ideal for presentation‑focused homeowners.
Cottage Trio – Group three plants in a triangle with airy companions like Physostegia and hardy geraniums to create soft, romantic drifts – for lovers of classic cottage gardens.
Patio Statement – Grow one plant in a 40–50 litre terracotta pot beside seating, underplanted with trailing thyme for scent at ankle level – perfect for balcony and terrace gardeners.
Cutting Corner – Line a sunny fence with a short row, edging with low nepeta, to give structure outdoors and a steady supply of cut blooms indoors – suited to creative flower arrangers.
Formal Frame – Use two or four bushes to mark the corners of a small rectangular bed, filling the centre with lower perennials for a neat, balanced look – appealing to tidy‑border enthusiasts.

Growth and structural characteristics
Upright, bushy habit with dense, glossy, dark bronze‑green foliage; moderately thorny. Typical height 95–125 cm, spread 70–90 cm, forming a well‑filled, structural bush in borders or as a specimen.
Flower morphology
Large XL double blooms with 26–39 petals, high‑centred cup to goblet form; mainly borne in small clusters. Strong remontant habit with a particularly abundant second flush in suitable conditions.
Colour data and phenology
Deep pink to magenta‑red inner petals, silvery‑white outer petal undersides (RHS 60A inner, 155D outer); colour holds well, paling slightly in strong sun and deepening in cool weather before fading towards pink.
Fragrance and aroma
Very strong, garden‑filling perfume with classic damask character; valued historically in fragrance competitions and especially effective when planted near paths, doors or seating for regular close‑up enjoyment.
Hip characteristics
Hip set is usually low due to regular deadheading of double blooms; when allowed to develop, hips are small, spherical, around 8–12 mm diameter, with an attractive red colour later in the season.
Resistance and winter hardiness
Hardy to about −21 to −18 °C (USDA 6b, RHS H7, Swedish zone 3); good resistance to powdery mildew and black spot, moderate rust sensitivity; moderate heat and drought tolerance with watering in dry spells.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in full sun, in fertile, well‑drained soil; space 50–90 cm depending on use. Medium maintenance: benefits from regular deadheading, feeding and occasional plant protection for long‑term vigour and display.

Rome (Italy) – Gold Medal (1968); Le Roeulx (Belgium) – Gold Medal (1968); Le Roeulx (Belgium) – Fragrance Cup (1968); Lyon (France) – Gold Medal (1968); Geneva (Switzerland) – Silver Medal (1968); Courtrai (Belgium) – Silver Medal (1968); Valbypark (Denm
Pollinator Attraction:
Its strongly double, high-centred blooms offer limited stamen accessibility, which reduces their attractiveness to pollinators.
Pollinator-Friendly Rating:
Its double, high-centred blooms are poorly accessible to pollinators, so its pollinator-friendliness is limited and it is mainly ornamental.
Hip Comment:
Rose-hip formation is expected to be minimal due to the removal of double flowers and spent blooms; if formed, the hips are spherical, 8–12 mm in diameter and red.

Information about the videos
The video series is not a “seasonal showcase”; it illustrates the essence of pharmaROSA® own-root cultivation in a tangible way: how the plant is built up, what the root system is like and how the shoot system regenerates. The recordings were therefore made at different times and with plants at various stages of development, so mixed foliage levels and differing stages of growth may appear in the videos. They are not a ‘sample’ of the batch dispatched, but a visual explanation of how the technology works. The current condition of the rose available to order — typical for the given period and similar to what you can expect to receive in the parcel — is shown in the upper part of the product page.
