Small and in a sorry state plant (rare white leaves - disease?).

This climbing rose may be small in size, but it is very robust and blooms in a lovely range of colours, such as pink, salmon, yellow, and white, throughout the summer season. The flowers are small but have a generous cluster of double blooms on foliage that is highly resistant to diseases. These pretty roses with an old-fashioned charm exude a pleasant fragrance. They are perfect for small spaces, container cultivation, and making bouquets!

Description

The Rosier Starlet Rose 'Alina' is part of a new generation of miniature climbing roses, the 'Starlets of the Roaring Twenties', well adapted for ornamenting terraces, balconies, and small gardens. Not very tall but vigorous and particularly floriferous, 'Alina' produces large bouquets filled with old-fashioned double roses that change colour throughout the day. From deep pink to rose to salmon, to pale yellow and finally cream white, they create a magnificent spectacle on perfectly healthy foliage. Their scent is rather strong, filling the air on warm and calm days.

The climbing miniature rose 'Alina' or 'Tan 07890' is part of the complex family of cluster-flowered roses. It is a recent creation developed in Germany by the rose breeder Tantau and distributed by Edirose. It is a sarmentous rose with a small habit. It has a flexible habit and thorny stems, reaching an average height of 1.75 m (6ft) with a spread of 1.50 m (5ft). Its foliage, composed of small leaflets, is a fairly shiny green and highly resistant to rose diseases. Flowering begins in May and continues until October as long as it is not lacking water. Its very double roses are grouped in large bouquets. Each rose, measuring between 5 and 7 cm (2 and 3in) in diameter, full of petals, opens almost flat. Their colour evolves as they mature, and their scent is medium to strong intensity.

The climbing miniature rose Alina can be trained on a trellis or a structure suitable for its size, in the ground or pots. It allows for creating delightful decorations throughout the summer and requires very little maintenance, except for regular watering in summer during hot and prolonged dry periods. Pair the floribunda roses or combine them with small-sized clematis such as 'Blue Pirouette' or 'Dancing Queen'. These small climbing roses also go well with phlox paniculata, delphiniums, digitalis, catmints, and tall baby's breath. Create beautiful bouquets with their flowers as well.

Planting and care

If you're planting the 'Alina' rose, aim to do so between November and March in well-prepared soil. Roses prefer soil that's a bit clayey and heavier rather than too light. If your soil is sandy, compact, or dry during the summer, it's best to bury compost or well-rotted manure at the bottom of the planting hole. Plant the rose in a sunny spot, but if possible, provide it with some partial shade. To ensure repeat flowering, remove any faded flowers and make sure to apply a specific fertiliser at the beginning of growth and throughout the flowering period. If the soil becomes too dry during the summer, the flowering will decrease. To encourage growth, you should trim the stems by about a quarter of their length (from 4 to 6 buds from the base of the stem) in late winter. Always prune above an outward-facing bud so that the bush can fill out and the branches don't get tangled in the centre of the canopy. Floribunda rose varieties are more vigorous and floriferous than large-flowered rose varieties.

Roses may develop unsightly spots at the end of summer, but this is a natural occurrence and doesn't harm the rose's growth.
