CLEOPÁTRA™ – red-yellow dwarf mini rose

Bring a touch of playful colour to your front garden with CLEOPÁTRA™, a compact mini rose that fits beautifully into smaller Irish spaces and copes reliably even where soil stays heavy after rainfall. Its vivid red and creamy yellow bicolour blooms appear in generous flushes across the season, giving your beds and containers a long, sparkling display without demanding constant attention. The bush stays naturally low and compact, perfect for edging paths, under windows or beside a cottage-style doorstep. As an own-root plant, it settles in steadily and can regenerate from its base, supporting a long, stable lifespan in your garden. In the first year it quietly builds its roots, by the second it pushes stronger shoots, and by the third it reveals its full ornamental value as a reliable, easy-care feature.


Cleopátra™ shows a double bloom with 26–39 petals and a well-filled centre.

Use cases

Target area Reason
Front garden edging along paths or driveways This miniature rose forms a naturally low, compact hedge line that stays neat with minimal trimming, so You can frame paths and driveways with colour while keeping maintenance easy for beginners
Small mixed flower beds in family gardens Its modest height and bushy structure tuck in well among perennials, giving a long season of bicolour blooms that brighten the border without overshadowing neighbouring plants, ideal for homeowners
Containers and terrace pots (minimum 40–50 litres) In a generous-sized pot this dwarf rose forms a dense, rounded clump that flowers repeatedly, letting You enjoy a long-lasting focal point on patios or balconies with straightforward watering and feeding for busy urbanites
Coastal and windswept front gardens The sturdy, low habit and own-root resilience help it cope with exposed spots, even where Irish Atlantic air brings persistent damp and slows soil drainage in typical heavy garden ground for cautious gardeners
Low-maintenance family gardens with limited gardening time Good disease resistance and modest size mean fewer pruning tasks and less spraying, so the plant remains attractive with simple seasonal care, a reassuring choice for time-pressed families
Long-term planting schemes and cottage-style borders As an own-root rose it gradually builds a balanced, bushy framework that endures for years, fitting well into traditional cottage mixes where You want a small rose that will settle and stay for thoughtful planners
Partially shaded spots near walls or entrances Tolerant of partial shade, this mini rose still produces good colour in areas that miss full midday sun, allowing You to brighten north-east or north-west aspects around doors and windows for practical users
Small groups of 3–5 plants in narrow borders Planted closely, the compact shrubs knit together into a tidy, colourful strip that looks designed rather than crowded, an effective way to dress slim beds without complex planting plans for design-conscious beginners

Decorating ideas

  • Cottage Border Ribbon – Plant CLEOPÁTRA™ as a low ribbon in front of phlox and feather‑reed grass to create a soft, cottage-style band of colour – ideal for homeowners who like relaxed, traditional borders.
  • Doorstep Welcome Pot – Use one rose in a 40–50 litre terracotta pot with trailing thyme around the edge to greet guests with neat, easy colour – perfect for busy urbanites with compact entrances.
  • Mini Hedge Frame – Line a short path with a double row of CLEOPÁTRA™ to form a miniature hedge that outlines your route with red-yellow blooms – suited to families wanting structure without formal hedging.
  • Balcony Feature Trio – Group three large containers, each with CLEOPÁTRA™ and a small lavender, to enjoy contrast between bright roses and scented foliage – great for apartment dwellers seeking simple, long-season interest.
  • Partial-Shade Corner Glow – Tuck a cluster of these mini roses into a lightly shaded corner with hostas and ferns so the bicolour flowers pop against lush leaves – ideal for gardeners making the most of cooler Irish aspects.

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.
