NAOMI™ – deep pink nostalgia rose – Olesen
Naomi brings a luxurious, deep pink, rosette bloom and a romantic, classic rose fragrance to your garden, yet remains straightforward to live with in everyday Irish conditions, even where soils stay heavy after rain and need better drainage. This bushy shrub rose flowers in generous clusters, repeating well through the season, so your front garden, edging or small bed can look floriferous without complicated planting schemes. Its dense, dark green foliage provides a rich backdrop to the strongly scented flowers, giving You that “old rose” feel in a modern, easy-care format. As an own-root plant, it settles in for the long term, quietly building longevity and shape in its final position with less worry about graft failure or renewal. In an average family garden You can rely on its medium maintenance needs: a little deadheading and routine care are enough to keep it looking healthy and neat. Ideal for cottage-style borders, small groups of 1–5 plants or a single statement by the path, it works just as well in a large patio container of at least 40–50 litres, where its bushy frame and fragrance greet You up close. Over the first three years it focuses first on roots, then on strong shoots, then finally on full ornamental impact, rewarding a bit of patience with a richly coloured, long-lived shrub rose.

Small group planting (1–5 plants)
Planted in loose drifts with 70 cm spacing, the dense foliage knits together into a soft-edged, floriferous mound, perfect for average-sized beds where You want quick visual impact and a coherent look without advanced design skills as a homeowner
Patio or balcony container (40–50 L minimum)
Performs well in a large container when given regular watering, allowing town-house and coastal balcony gardeners to enjoy strong fragrance and colour close to seating areas, while own-root resilience supports long-term use in one pot for the urbanite
Edging for paths and seating areas
Cluster-flowered, 3–5 blooms per stem give continuous interest along paths; planted at 60–70 cm intervals it forms a scented, informal edging that is easily kept in shape with light pruning, suiting those who prefer simple, repeatable tasks
Long-lived family garden backbone
As an own-root shrub it gradually builds a stable framework, recovering more reliably from winter damage and hard pruning, a good choice if You want a rose that will stay with the garden for many years with modest intervention as a planner
Mixed border with shrubs and perennials
The dark, slightly glossy foliage sets off lighter companions such as hydrangeas, campanulas or creeping phlox, giving depth and texture in mixed borders, particularly useful where Atlantic winds and wet spells demand sturdy, adaptable planting
Fragrant seating or evening area
Its very strong, classic rose scent is detectable from a distance, making it ideal beside benches or patios where You relax, adding sensory richness through the season with only moderate maintenance expectations for the time-pressed gardener

Origin and breeding
Bred by L. Pernille Olesen at Poulsen Roser A/S, Denmark; breeding year 2004, introduced and registered in 2011, with parentage not publicly disclosed but selected for fragrance and garden performance.
Awards and recognitions
Highly decorated for fragrance: Fragrance Awards at Lyon (2012), Monza (2012) and The Hague (2016), plus First Prize at Hradec in 2013, confirming both scent quality and overall ornamental value.
Growth and structure
Bushy shrub 110–160 cm high and 80–130 cm wide, moderately thorny with dense, dark green, slightly glossy foliage; builds a full, rounded framework suited to beds, edging and specimen roles in gardens.
Flower morphology
Large, very double rosette blooms with 40+ petals, typically produced in clusters of 3–5 per stem; repeats well with an abundant second flush, delivering substantial flowering over the main rose season.
Colour and phenology
Deep, cool-toned crimson-pink with slightly paler petal undersides; colour fades only slightly to mid-pink, maintaining a crimson base tone and good uniformity from bud through full bloom across the season.
Fragrance and aroma
Very strong, classic rose fragrance, clearly detectable from a distance around the plant; primarily a sensory and ornamental variety, with fully double flowers that prioritise scent and appearance over pollinator access.
Rose hip characteristics
Rose hips are few due to very double flowers; any formed are small, 10–15 mm, ovoid and orange-red, adding minor late-season interest rather than being a primary decorative or wildlife feature.
Resistance and hardiness
Hardy to approximately −21 to −18 °C (RHS H7, USDA 6b, Swedish zone 3); medium resistance to powdery mildew, black spot and rust, performing reliably with basic preventive care and good air circulation.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in sunny sites with well-drained soil; spacing 70 cm in beds, 60 cm for hedging, 110 cm as specimen, 2.0–2.4 plants/m² for mass plantings; suits flower beds, edging, specimen and park or urban green spaces.
NAOMI™ offers richly scented, deep pink blooms on a bushy, long-lived shrub, giving reliable repeat flowering and a stable own-root framework that suits both beginners and experienced gardeners, so You can choose it with confidence for your garden.

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.
