PAOLINA™ – pale pink nostalgia rose – Olesen & Olesen
If You are dreaming of a romantic but undemanding rose for an Irish family garden, PAOLINA™ fits beautifully into small beds, front gardens and cottage-style borders. Its soft seashell-pink blooms create a nostalgic mood, while the bushy, medium-sized shrub stays naturally neat and easy to place near paths, windows or along a low hedge. The medium, sweet fragrance feels pleasantly refined rather than overpowering, ideal where You sit or pass by daily. As an own-root plant it builds long-term resilience, quietly regenerating and keeping its ornamental value for many seasons. In Ireland’s wet climate, simple care and good soil preparation support healthy growth, even on heavier ground. Choose a 40–50 litre pot for patio use, give it regular feeding and You can enjoy lasting flowers from summer into autumn. Over the first three years it settles in steadily – first rooting deeply, then building its framework, and by year three showing its full character in the garden.

Origin and breeding
Bred in Denmark by L. Pernille Olesen and Mogens Nyegaard Olesen (Poulsen Roser A/S), breeding year 2021, registered 2023 and introduced 2024 by Poulsen Roser A/S.
Growth and structure
Bushy shrub rose, about 110–150 cm tall and 100–140 cm wide, with moderately dense, slightly glossy dark green foliage and moderate prickliness, forming a well-filled garden shrub over time.
Flower morphology
Large, double, cupped flowers (2.75–3.95 in) with 26–39 petals, produced in clusters; remontant habit with a plentiful second flowering period in suitable conditions.
Colour and phenology
Delicate pale pink with a subtle seashell hue; colour holds well, fading gently to powder pink and almost white edges as blooms age, giving a soft, harmonious effect throughout flowering.
Fragrance and aroma
Medium-strength, sweet rosy scent, noticeable at close range without being overpowering, making it suitable for seating areas, entrances and smaller gardens where fragrance is appreciated.
Rose hip characteristics
Rose hip formation is not typical; if present, fruits are very small (0–4 mm) and generally insignificant for ornamental or wildlife value in most garden settings.
Resistance and hardiness
Hardy to approximately −26 to −23 °C (H7, USDA 5b, Swedish zone 4); disease resistance is moderate to low, with susceptibility to powdery mildew, black spot and especially rust, so monitoring is advised.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in sunny positions with well-drained soil; spacing 100–110 cm in beds, up to 180 cm as a specimen. Suitable for beds, hedging, large containers and cut flowers; regular care and protection improve performance.
PAOLINA™ offers romantic pale-pink blooms, a bushy medium-sized shrub for beds or containers, and long-lived own-root vigour that rewards simple, regular care, making it a reassuring choice if You want a dependable rose to grow on with You.
Detailed product attributes
Product Identification Data
Product Name:
PAOLINA™ – pale pink nostalgia rose - Olesen & Olesen
Product Type:
pharmaROSA® ORIGINAL - 2-litre own-root potted rose
Flower Colour:
Delicate, uniformly pale pink tone with a subtle seashell hue.
Closed Bud:
Very pale, almost white outer petals, with a silky pale pink inner colour.
Freshly Opened Flower:
The outer petals are a soft pastel pink, with a slightly more intense rosy tint towards the centre.
Full Bloom:
Homogeneous, soft pink petals with a barely noticeable fading at the edges.
Pre-Fading Flower:
The petal colour fades to powder pink, blending to almost white at the edges.
Colour Fading Description:
During opening the pale pink tone moderately fades: at full bloom it remains a soft pink, before senescence it fades to a powder pink, and at the margins it becomes almost white.
Pollinator Attraction:
Its strongly double (many‑petalled) flower form and inaccessible stamens, which result in reduced pollen availability, make it unattractive to pollinators.
Pollinator-Friendly Rating:
Due to its double flowers and lack of pollen, its pollinator friendliness is limited; it is primarily an ornamental variety.

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.
