Archway or small pergola in a family garden
Clusters of semi‑double flowers repeat through the season, creating a colourful arch without very heavy pruning demands; own‑root plants age well, so a once‑established arch can remain a long‑term feature for homeowners

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.
