CARMINE™ – carmine-red tea-hybrid rose - Cox & Tanjga
If You are looking for a rose You can simply plant and enjoy, CARMINE™ fits beautifully into smaller Irish gardens, coping well where soils are heavy and need careful drainage. Its compact, balanced habit makes it ideal for front borders, paths and entrances where You want a neat, elegant look without constant work. The velvety carmine-red blooms are classically hybrid-tea and superb for cutting, giving You stately, long-stemmed flowers for the house from early summer onwards. Dense, dark green, glossy foliage forms a tidy backdrop, helping the flowers stand out in all weathers. As an own-root shrub it offers reassuring longevity, regenerating well after pruning or setbacks and settling into a stable shape over time. With moderate disease resistance and only medium maintenance needs, it suits busy households that still want a smart, cared-for look. In a large patio pot of at least 40–50 litres this compact rose becomes a striking container feature by doors or on balconies. Give it a sunny position, keep watering regular, and You will see the familiar “year one roots, year two shoots, year three full display” development arc as it grows into Your garden style.

Technical cultivar profile
Parameter
Data
Name and registration
Hybrid tea rose from the Vaza collection. Registered cultivar name BOZvaz018, marketed as Carmine™ Vaza® BOZvaz018. Classified as a hybrid tea rose for garden and cutting use.
Origin and breeding
Bred by Peter Cox and Biljana Božanić Tanjga for PhenoGeno Roses in Temerin, Serbia. Introduced by PhenoGeno Roses in 2020, with breeding work completed around 2019. Parentage not publicly documented.
Growth and structure
Compact, upright bush 50–75 cm high and 45–70 cm wide. Dense, dark green, glossy foliage creates a full shrub. Moderately thorny stems; suited to borders, low hedging and container cultivation.
Flower morphology
Classic hybrid tea form with double, cup-shaped blooms bearing 26–39 petals. Large flowers, typically solitary on stems, suitable for cutting. Remontant habit with a generous second flush of flowers.
Colour and phenology
Deep, even carmine-red flowers with a fine velvety surface. Colour holds well, later softening slightly to pink-edged tones. Buds open to uniform rich red; bloom colour remains attractive as flowers age.
Fragrance and aroma
Sweet, mild fragrance of restrained intensity, noticeable at close range without dominating adjacent seating areas. Primarily chosen for its colour and form rather than strong scent in garden design.
Rose hip characteristics
Hip production is usually low due to the double bloom form, but occasional small spherical red hips 7–10 mm in diameter may develop if flowers are left uncut after flowering.
Resistance and hardiness
Hardy to approximately -21 to -18 °C (H7, USDA 6b, Swedish zone 3). Disease resistance rated moderate for black spot, rust and powdery mildew; benefits from standard preventative care in humid seasons.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in a sunny position with well-drained soil. Medium maintenance: seasonal feeding, pruning and occasional plant protection advisable. Recommended spacing 45–90 cm depending on use; 3.3–3.8 plants/m² for mass planting.
CARMINE™ offers compact structure, rich carmine-red blooms and reliable cutting stems, and as an own-root hybrid tea it builds long-term resilience and regrowth in Your garden, making it a practical choice if You would like easy elegance.
Flower Colour:
Deep, rich carmine-red shade with a clear, even tone. Fine, velvety surface that brightens slightly in the light.
Closed Bud:
Dark carmine red with outer petals that have a silky sheen, slightly deeper in tone in shade.
Freshly Opened Flower:
Bright carmine red, the outer petal whorl with a slightly darker edge, and the inner petals more radiant.
Full Bloom:
Uniform, intense carmine red, with minimal variation in shade between the petals.
Pre-Fading Flower:
Fading carmine red, the centres of the petals are paler and the edges are slightly pink.
Colour Fading Description:
At opening the blooms are uniformly intense carmine red, then moderately fade by the end of flowering; the centres lighten and the edges develop a slight pink hue.
Pollinator Attraction:
Double (fully double) bloom form with reduced stamen accessibility limits nectar and pollen access, making this variety poorly attractive to pollinators.
Pollinator-Friendly Rating:
Its double flowers limit its pollinator-friendliness; primarily an ornamental variety.
Rose Hip Notes:
Hip formation is expected to be limited due to the double-flowered blooms; occasionally produces spherical red hips 7–10 mm in diameter.

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.
