MUIDEN™ – mid-pink bedding floribunda rose - Olesen & Olesen

Bring a touch of romantic castle charm to your garden with MUIDEN™, a bushy, mid‑pink floribunda rose that is made for easy‑care flowerbeds and neat front‑of‑house borders. Its wide‑spreading habit quickly knits into a low, flowering hedge, ideal for smaller Irish gardens where you want structure, colour and reliability without constant work. Bred in Denmark, it offers good overall disease resistance, coping well with Ireland’s humidity and the frequent rain that can challenge other roses. The rounded clusters of double, cup‑shaped blooms repeat generously from early summer onwards, the soft pink shades holding their colour well before gently fading to a pastel blush. A fresh, wild‑rose style fragrance adds subtle perfume along paths and patios, while the moderately dense, slightly glossy foliage provides a tidy green backdrop even between flushes. Supplied as a well‑rooted, own‑root plant in a 2‑litre pot, it is straightforward to plant and settle in – year one is all about building roots, year two brings stronger shoots, and by year three you can expect full ornamental value with a stable, long‑lived bush that fits naturally into your family garden.

Use cases

Target areaReason
Front garden flowerbed near the entrance The bushy, wide-spreading habit quickly creates a low, welcoming hedge of soft mid-pink blooms, giving a smart, finished look around paths and drives with relatively little maintenance for beginners
Edging along a sunny terrace or patio Compact height with 70–100 cm stems and medium-sized, cluster-flowered heads makes it ideal for edging a terrace, bringing flowers and scent close to seating without blocking views for homeowners
Small groups in mixed cottage-style beds Planted in groups of 3–5, its harmonising mid-pink colour and moderately dense foliage blend easily with perennials and shrubs, giving a soft, cottage feel that still stays tidy for busy-gardeners
Low rose hedge beside a boundary or path Recommended spacings allow you to form an even, repeat-flowering hedge that defines garden areas; the own-root structure supports long-term, stable growth with simple annual pruning for planners
Containers on a sunny balcony or paved area Performs well in a quality, drained pot of at least 40–50 litres, where its bushy, floriferous habit brings long-season colour and fragrance to hard landscaping without complex care for balcony-owners
Coastal or exposed suburban sites Its robust foliage and reliable constitution are a good match for breezier gardens, coping well where milder Atlantic winds and frequent rain can test more delicate roses for coastal-gardeners
Informal family seating and play areas Moderately thorny but not aggressively spiky, it offers a good compromise between safety and resilience, giving a dense, colourful backdrop around family spaces when sited just out of main play routes for families
Low-maintenance ornamental beds in urban gardens Good disease tolerance and remontant flowering provide dependable colour with only moderate upkeep, fitting well where you want a rose that suits busy weeks and simple, seasonal routines for urban-owners

Decorating ideas

  • Romantic front border – Line a sunny path with MUIDEN™ and lavender, using its mid-pink clusters and gentle fragrance to create a welcoming entrance – ideal for homeowners who like classic charm without fussy maintenance
  • Soft cottage mix – Combine small groups of this floribunda with Achillea and Echinacea for a relaxed, country look where the tidy bush shape keeps the planting from becoming unruly – suited to cottage-garden fans
  • Neat patio edge – Plant it along a terrace with low herbs such as rosemary and thyme, letting the compact, wide-spreading bushes frame seating while herbs fill gaps – perfect for busy people who enjoy simple structure
  • Colour-coordinated bed – Use MUIDEN™ with small-leaved Euonymus groundcover to contrast pink blooms against evergreen foliage, giving all-season interest and easy weed suppression – good for low-maintenance planners
  • Container focal point – In a 40–50 litre pot, underplant with trailing lobelia or ivy to soften the rim while the rose provides height and repeat colour – attractive for balcony and courtyard gardeners with limited space

Technical cultivar profile
ParameterData
Name and registration Floribunda shrub rose from the Castle collection; registered as POUlcas071 and marketed as Muiden™ Castle® POUlcas071, a bedding floribunda rose for general garden and landscape use.
Origin and breeding Bred in Denmark by L. Pernille Olesen and Mogens Nyegaard Olesen (Poulsen Roser A/S) in 2021, with parentage undocumented; introduced to the market in 2025 by Poulsen Roser A/S.
Growth and structure Bushy, wide-spreading habit reaching around 70–100 cm in height and 75–110 cm in spread; moderately dense, slightly glossy medium-green foliage with a standard level of prickles for a modern floribunda.
Flower morphology Medium-sized, double, cup-shaped blooms with 26–39 petals carried in clusters; remontant habit gives a generous second flush, making it suitable for beds and edging where consistent flower cover is desired.
Colour and phenology Medium pink overall, with fresher vivid edges and paler centres at opening; colour holds well, then fades to a delicate pastel pink as the flowers mature, maintaining an even tone through the flowering cycle.
Fragrance and aroma Moderate, noticeable scent with a fresh, wild-rose character; enough fragrance to enjoy along paths, entrances and seating areas without becoming overpowering in smaller or more enclosed garden spaces.
Rose hip characteristics Hip set is generally low; when present, hips are very small, typically no more than 6 mm in diameter, so fruit display is minimal and the plant is grown mainly for its floral effect.
Resistance and hardiness Winter hardy to approximately -21 to -18 °C (H7, USDA 6b, Swedish zone 3); resistant to powdery mildew and rust, with moderate black spot tolerance; needs regular watering in prolonged heat or drought.
Horticultural recommendations Best in full sun with well-drained soil; spacing 55–100 cm depending on use, with 2.5–2.9 plants/m² for mass planting; suitable for beds, edging and larger containers when provided with moderate maintenance.

MUIDEN™ offers bushy, medium-pink clusters, good disease tolerance and long-lived own-root reliability, giving you an easy, attractive choice for beds, edges or containers if you would like a straightforward rose that performs well.

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.
