Golden Celebration – AUSgold English shrub rose
If You would like a rose that settles in quickly and then simply gets on with performing, Golden Celebration is a classic English shrub that fits beautifully into Irish family gardens. Its large, cupped blooms open in a rich, glowing golden shade, fading gently to buttery tones, while a full, fruity-tea fragrance drifts across the garden on still evenings. Bushy, arching growth and dense, dark green foliage create a rounded, romantic shrub that looks at home in both neat urban fronts and relaxed cottage-style beds. As an own-root plant in the pharmaROSA® ORIGINAL 2-litre pot, it is well established on arrival, so You can plant it with confidence even on heavier Irish soils where good drainage helps in wetter spells. Repeat flowering continues from early summer into autumn with generous flushes, especially if You deadhead occasionally. Over the first year the plant concentrates on strong roots, in the second it builds sturdy shoots, and by the third season it reaches its full ornamental value with abundant, show-stopping blooms.

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.
