THIERRY MARX – mauve‑lilac flower‑bed floribunda rose, shrub rose
If You dream of a reliable, low‑effort rose that simply settles in and performs, THIERRY MARX from The Grand Perfumes collection has been bred to do just that. Its compact, bushy habit and dense, glossy foliage make it naturally neat, so it suits Irish front gardens and smaller borders where there is no room for unruly shrubs. Very double, cup‑shaped blooms in rich mallow‑lilac and fuchsia shades repeat generously, giving a luxurious show of colour that stands out even on grey, damp days. The strong, classic rose‑tea perfume with citrusy, fruity notes feels genuinely indulgent close to paths, doors and seating areas. As an own‑root plant in a 2‑litre pot, it is already well established when it arrives, and over three seasons it focuses first on roots, then on building sturdy shoots, before reaching full ornamental impact. Very good resistance to black spot, mildew and rust keeps it looking fresh with minimal spraying, even in areas where frequent rain and lingering humidity can encourage disease, while its moderate heat and frost tolerance help it cope with changeable Irish weather year after year.

Self-Cleaning Description:
According to sources, spent blooms fall away easily and the shrub is largely self-cleaning, requiring only minimal additional deadheading.
Flower Colour:
Mallow-coloured flower composed of pink-lilac shades, with a darker, almost crimson centre and paler outer petals.
Closed Bud:
Deep, intense pink bud with slight lilac-mauve flushes on the outer bud scales.
Freshly Opened Flower:
The inner whorl of petals opens in a strong, full fuchsia with subtle purplish tones. The outer petals are a lighter pink with mauve-pink gradations that fade towards the edges.
Full Bloom:
Very full, many‑petalled bloom in a deep rose–fuchsia colour range. The inner petals are an intense purple‑pink, while the outer petals show a lighter, softer pink shade.
Pre-Fading Flower:
The deep pink and fuchsia tones lighten slightly, fading to a softer mauve-pink.
Colour Fading Description:
In cooler conditions it retains its mauve–pink–purple colour relatively well for 2–3 days, but in warmer, sunny weather the blooms noticeably lighten, almost turning pink.
Pollinator Attraction:
Double, cup-shaped flowers with very many petals mostly hide the stamens, so the blooms are poor nectar and pollen sources for pollinators due to reduced accessibility, although a strong fragrance may still attract some insects.
Heat and Drought Tolerance Description:
Tolerates summer heat well; several sources list it as a heat‑ and frost‑tolerant variety. Its drought tolerance is moderate: during prolonged dry periods it requires regular watering.
Maintenance Requirements:
Maintenance requirement low; very good disease resistance, particularly to black spot, powdery mildew and rust, so generally requires minimal plant protection.

Information about the videos
The video series is not a “seasonal showcase”, but makes the essence of pharmaROSA® own-root production tangible: how the plant is built, what the root system is like and how the shoots renew themselves. The footage was therefore taken at different times, showing plants at different stages of development, so mixed leaf coverage or differing growth stages may appear in the videos. This is not a “sample” of the batch delivered, but an illustration of how the technology works. The current condition of the rose available to order — typical of the given period and similar to what you can expect to receive in the parcel — is shown at the top of the product page.
