BELLE DE LYRA – yellow hybrid tea rose – pharmaROSA® ORIGINAL
Belle de Lyra is an elegant hybrid tea that gives You classic, golden-yellow blooms on a tidy, upright bush, ideal for smaller Irish gardens where You want reliable colour without complicated care. Its dense, glossy foliage and repeat flowering mean a season-long display of warm, straw-cream tones that sit beautifully against brick, gravel or cottage-style planting. As an own-root rose in our pharmaROSA® ORIGINAL 2-litre pot, it settles in steadily and is bred for a long garden life, coping well with our often humid summers and the extra fungal pressure they bring. Plant it once in a sunny spot with reasonable drainage and, with simple watering and light feeding, it will reward You with neat, upright stems that are perfect for cutting. In year one it concentrates on roots, in year two You see stronger shoots, and by year three it reaches its full ornamental value, becoming a stable feature in Your borders. This medium-height, bushy rose works especially well near paths and windows where You can admire its changing shades of yellow as the flowers mature, creating a calm, romantic look. It suits both confident gardeners and those just starting out, offering the reassurance that You can plant it and let it settle in gradually, without demanding tasks. For lasting impact, it fits naturally into family spaces and informal cottage beds, keeping Your garden looking thoughtfully finished with only modest effort.

Property
Data
Name and registration
BELLE DE LYRA – yellow hybrid tea rose – pharmaROSA®; hybrid tea rose group and commercial type; ARS exhibition name not recorded; former names not known; sold as a verified pharmaROSA® ORIGINAL own-root plant.
Origin and breeding
Hybrid tea discovered and selected in France in 2014 by PharmaRosa®; parentage not recorded. Introduced and distributed by PharmaRosa® Ltd. for garden use; exact registration and introduction years not documented.
Awards and recognitions
No formal competition awards or international honours are currently recorded for this cultivar; it is offered primarily as a reliable, decorative garden rose for private plantings and home collections.
Growth and structure
Bushy, upright shrub reaching about 95–130 cm in height, with a 60–85 cm spread. Foliage is dense and mid-green with a glossy surface; moderately thorny stems. Spent blooms tend to remain and benefit from deadheading.
Flower morphology
Medium-sized, double, cup-shaped blooms with approximately 26–39 petals. Flowers are usually borne in small clusters, repeat freely through the season, with an abundant second flush after the main early-summer flowering.
Colour and phenology
Warm golden-yellow with creamy tones; buds open bright lemon-gold, then fade through buttery yellow to straw-yellow and cream. Colour retention is moderate, giving a soft, variable effect as each flower ages on the plant.
Fragrance and aroma
No reliable data are available on fragrance strength or character; the variety is grown mainly for its colour and classic hybrid tea flower form rather than for strongly scented or perfume-focused plantings.
Rose hip characteristics
Produces a small number of spherical hips, about 8–12 mm in diameter, coloured orange-red. Ornamental value is modest; hips may appear after flowering if spent blooms are not removed for repeat blooming.
Resistance and hardiness
Hardy to approximately −21 to −18 °C (RHS H7, Swedish zone 3, USDA 6b). Disease resistance is moderate overall: good tolerance to black spot, with moderate susceptibility to powdery mildew and rust, especially in humid periods.
Horticultural recommendations
Prefers sunny sites with reasonably drained soil; avoid prolonged drought. Water regularly in dry spells and feed yearly. Maintenance is medium: occasional plant protection and deadheading improve repeat bloom and overall appearance.
BELLE DE LYRA offers warm yellow blooms, reliable repeat flowering and adaptable, long-lived own-root growth, making it a reassuring choice for gardeners who prefer straightforward planting and would like a rose that simply works.

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.
