HONEY MAYA – orange bedding floribunda rose
HONEY MAYA brings a cheerful splash of warm colour to your front garden without asking for complicated care. This bedding floribunda covers itself in clusters of semi-double blooms from early summer onwards, glowing in shades of fiery orange-red with a golden centre that slowly soften to salmon-coral pink. Its bushy habit and dense, glossy foliage create a neat, rounded shrub that fits perfectly into smaller Irish gardens, coping reliably with our breezy, damp weather and the kind of humidity-driven fungal pressure many sites experience. As a 6–12 month, own-root plant in the pharmaROSA® ORIGINAL 2-litre pot, it arrives well established and ready to settle in: You plant it, keep it watered, and it will do the rest. Year by year it becomes sturdier and more balanced, forming its natural shape in your soil and climate, so You can enjoy a long-lived, low-fuss rose. Its semi-double flowers with visible golden stamens are a gentle magnet for pollinators, while the medium, honey-sweet fragrance drifts nicely along paths and seating areas. Thanks to its moderate height and compact spread, HONEY MAYA is ideal for edging beds, lining cottage-style paths or brightening a patio container, letting You create a colourful, welcoming look without needing to be a rose expert.

Fiery orange-red petals with a golden-yellow centre. Buds open bright red–orange, then lighten to coral and finally fade to salmon-coral pink, maintaining good colour retention. Golden-yellow stamens are visible and decorative in open blooms.
Fragrance and aroma
Medium-strength fragrance with a honeyed, sweet character that is clearly noticeable at close range. Semi-double flowers with accessible stamens are partially pollinator-friendly and attract bees during warmer periods.

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.
