Rosa Décorosiers 'Pink Voluptia' - Shrub Rose

The 'Pink Voluptia' Rose Bush is part of the new range of large fragrant flowers from DECOROSIERS. It has been appreciated for over 20 years for its natural resistance to diseases and excellent floribundity. It is a vigorous bush rose that produces double-quartered roses, reminiscent of old-fashioned roses in shape and intense oriental fragrance. Each rose changes from bright pink to pale pink over time, creating a delightful range of pink hues throughout the bush. It is genuinely charming, provides exceptional, almost permanent decoration, and requires little maintenance. Easy, generous, and undemanding, it will find its place in all flower gardens.

The 'Pink Voluptia' rose (Noa 1811108) was bred in 2017 by the German rose breeder Reinhard Noack. It is classified as a modern, bushy and landscape rose. Its clustered flowers come from the polyantha rose, an old hybrid of Rosa multiflora and Rosa chinensis. The plant forms an upright bush, slightly taller than wide, reaching about 80 cm (32in) in height and 50 cm (20in) in width, depending on growing conditions. Very floriferous, it continuously produces an abundance of double or sometimes semi-double 8 cm (3in) flowers, which open like old-fashioned roses. Their colour varies from vibrant pink when they bloom to pale pink, with each petal's edge being more intense. They are highly fragrant, remain beautiful on the bush for a long time, and are stunning in a vase. They are gathered in small clusters. Its healthy foliage consists of small, dark green, glossy leaves covering thorny stems. The foliage colour may vary slightly during the season. The young shoots are red, and the young leaves are purple and coppery. This variety adapts to any well-prepared soil.

The 'Pink Voluptia' can be used in flower beds, borders, large spaces, slopes, or low hedges. It adapts to all soils that are not too wet and all climates, allowing it to be grown almost anywhere. It has a bushy growth habit and is perfect for low shrub borders in the background of a Decorosier variety border such as Vesuvia, Isalia, or Emera. When planted en masse, it can also edge pathways and highlight flower beds. For example, it can be paired with perennial geraniums (Geranium Blue Cloud, Anne Folkard, Nimbus, Orion), bellflowers (lactiflora, rapunculoides), catmints, lavenders, snapdragons, foxgloves, or other Stachys. Left unpruned, it will form a well-groomed bush, perfect for adding a touch of romance and fragrance to the terrace. It also makes beautiful bouquets with its flowers!
