LA SEVILLANA® – orange-red landscape shrub rose – Meilland
If You want a striking, easy-care rose that simply gets on with the job in Irish conditions, LA SEVILLANA® is a strong, reliable choice. Its vivid orange-red clusters light up beds and front gardens, while the bushy, upright habit naturally forms a uniform low hedge or mass planting. Bred as a tough landscape shrub, it offers excellent disease resistance and copes well with our damp air and heavy soils, even where drainage needs a little extra attention. The semi-double flowers are moderately pollinator-friendly, with discreet rose fragrance, and the plant’s own-root character supports a long-lived, regenerating shrub that settles into your garden year after year – in year one it concentrates on roots, in year two on shoots, and by year three it shows its full impact.
Dense, slightly glossy bronze-green foliage of La Sevillana®

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.
