Pullman Orient Express ® hybrid tea rose – BAIpeace
This celebrated hybrid tea brings luxury colour and classic form to family gardens with large, exhibition-style blooms on an upright, elegant bush. The raspberry-edged yellow flowers are ideal for cutting, while the plant’s own-root vigour supports a long-lived, reliable display that matures steadily in UK conditions. With thoughtful watering during longer dry spells and simple deadheading, you can enjoy refined, high-centred blooms without complex rose care. Over successive seasons it grows from root establishment to leafy framework to full ornamental impact, fitting neatly into cottage-style fronts, sunny borders and sheltered, partially shaded corners where drainage is sound and the soil can be improved once and enjoyed for years.

Usage options
Target area
Reasoning
Front garden focal point by the path
The tall, upright habit and exhibition-quality flowers make an immediate statement near a gate or front path, giving height without occupying excessive ground space and offering passing fragrance for homeowners who appreciate refined yet easy-care structure, especially beginners.
Small rose or mixed border
Regular repeat flowering and good heat tolerance provide colour across the season in compact beds, with the dense, glossy foliage helping to anchor looser cottage plantings; simple feeding and watering keep it performing reliably for time-pressed gardeners.
Cutting area in a family garden
The long, straight stems and high-centred, very double blooms are ideal for vases and arrangements, allowing you to cut regularly without weakening the plant, making it a natural choice for those who enjoy bringing flowers indoors, especially enthusiastic homeowners.
Specimen rose in a lawn or gravel pocket
Planted singly at the recommended spacing, it develops into a well-structured, upright bush whose striking bicolour flowers read clearly from a distance, rewarding simple annual pruning and light grooming for visually focused, style-conscious gardeners.
Partially shaded side garden
Its tolerance of partial shade makes it suitable for side paths or east-facing walls where full sun is limited, still delivering reliable flowering if the soil is prepared well and drainage improved, appealing to urban and courtyard beginners.
Small groups of three in cottage-style beds
Planting three bushes at mass-planting distance produces a rounded, repeating block of colour that blends easily with perennials and shrubs, building a long-lived framework that gradually fills out over the first three years for relaxed yet orderly homeowners.
Large containers on terraces or patios
In substantial containers of at least 40–50 litres, with quality compost and regular watering, it forms a vertical accent with perfumed blooms close to seating areas, suiting busy people who prefer manageable, moveable features, particularly urban gardeners.
Sheltered, improved border in heavier soils
Where clay or challenging ground is present, planting into raised or well-improved beds lets the own-root plant establish a deep, resilient root system, needing only periodic care while coping well with typical British weather for cautious new gardeners.
Styling ideas
Railway-elegance border – Echo the rose’s Pullman heritage with clipped box, dark gravel and vertical ironwork, ideal for design-led homeowners who want a structured yet romantic front-garden statement.
Cottage contrast trio – Group three plants with blue nepeta and airy pink geraniums to soften the strong flower form, perfect for those seeking classic cottage charm with reliable, repeat colour.
Golden-cut corner – Dedicate a sunny border section to this rose with creamy achillea and soft grasses, creating a ready-made cutting patch for families who enjoy home-grown bouquets.
Patio showcase pot – Use a 50‑litre terracotta container with trailing ivy and seasonal underplanting to frame seating areas, suited to balcony and terrace owners wanting maximum impact in limited space.
Shaded-side softening – On an east-facing side return, pair with clematis and variegated dogwood for layered height and long-season interest, appealing to busy gardeners converting awkward spaces into features.

Awards and recognition
Widely decorated: AARS 2002, multiple People’s Choice awards in Europe, Portland ‘Best Rose’ 2006, and the Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit for dependable garden performance.
Growth and structural characteristics
Strong, upright bush 130–170 cm high and 70–90 cm wide with dense, glossy dark green foliage; moderately thorny stems and a clear vertical outline suited to specimen and border use.

Colour data and phenology
Golden-yellow petals edged vivid raspberry-pink; buds flushed rosy-red, ageing to cream-yellow with broader pink margins; colour can lighten in strong sun yet remains attractively bicoloured throughout flowering.
Fragrance and aroma
Medium-strength, delicately sweet perfume typical of refined hybrid teas; noticeable at close range and in cut stems, adding value in seating areas and for indoor arrangements.
Hip characteristics
Hip set is limited by very double flowers; when present, small ovoid hips about 10–14 mm across develop, colouring orange-red and offering modest late-season ornamental interest.
Resistance and winter hardiness
Rated to RHS H6 and USDA 7b, tolerating typical UK winters; heat tolerant with watering during prolonged drought; disease resistance moderate, benefiting from routine monitoring and hygiene.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in well-drained, fertile soil with full sun or light partial shade; spacing 50–90 cm depending on use; deadhead and prune annually, providing medium-level care for sustained display and cutting.

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.
