Speelwark is a premium hybrid tea that gives You large, elegant blooms in warm apricot‑peach tones on a compact, upright bush that suits most Irish family gardens. Bred by Kordes for reliable flower quality, it offers strong, clearly scented fragrance with a peach‑citrus note that is lovely both on the plant and in the vase. In our 2‑litre pharmaROSA® ORIGINAL format, this own‑root rose arrives well established, ready to settle in steadily even where heavy soil needs good drainage and regular rain is the norm. Plant once and enjoy a long‑lived, regenerating planting that builds itself up naturally: roots in year one, stronger shoots and shape in year two, and full ornamental value by year three.

Use cases
Target area
Reason
Front‑garden specimen by the path
Compact, upright growth (around 70–95 cm) and dense, glossy foliage keep the plant neat beside paths and drives, giving a single, tidy focal point that looks “finished” without constant shaping – well suited to busy homeowners.
Cut‑flower corner near the house
Extra‑large, high‑quality hybrid tea blooms on long, straight stems make Speelwark ideal for regular cutting, so You can enjoy its peach‑yellow, citrus‑peach scented flowers indoors while the bush reliably produces more; perfect for those who like home‑grown bouquets.
Small rose group of 3–5 plants in a front bed
Planted at 40–65 cm spacing, several bushes knit into a low, harmonious group with repeat flowering through the season, giving an easy, “finished” look from the street without complex planting plans; ideal for small urban front gardens.
Mixed border with perennials and grasses
The warm apricot‑to‑peach colour blend works beautifully with grasses and perennials such as Stipa and daylilies, softening the border and echoing cottage‑garden style while still looking smart and intentional for relaxed family gardeners.
Sunny terrace or patio container
Speelwark’s bushy, upright habit suits a large 40–50 litre pot, where its strong scent and pastel colouring can be enjoyed up close; the own‑root plant gradually fills the container, offering long‑term use rather than a short‑lived display for balcony and patio owners.
Easy‑care focal point in heavier Irish soils
This robust, own‑root plant adapts gradually to its planting spot and, with basic drainage, copes reliably with our cool, damp conditions and regular rainfall, reducing the risk of loss and giving confidence to beginners.
Low, formal rose row or edging
Bushy yet relatively narrow growth (35–50 cm spread) allows tidy rows or informal low hedging along drives and paths, giving structure and colour without demanding frequent pruning corrections, suitable for those wanting simple, repeatable planting lines.
Long‑term feature bed near seating areas
As an own‑root, hardy H7 rose with moderate disease tolerance and good winter hardiness down to about −26 °C, it forms a durable, regenerating clump that keeps its decorative role for years, reassuring gardeners planning long‑lived family seating areas.
Decorating ideas
Cottage border charm – Combine Speelwark with Stipa tenuissima and soft pink perennials for a breezy, cottage look in front gardens – ideal for those who like romantic but easy planting.
Pastel cut‑flower bed – Pair with cream roses and pale lavender to create a gentle cutting patch close to the kitchen door – great for anyone who enjoys arranging their own bouquets.
Smart entrance accent – Plant a single bush in a small gravelled bed by the front step, underplanted with low thyme, for a clean, low‑maintenance welcome – suited to busy urban homeowners.
Sunny patio pot – Grow in a 40–50 litre terracotta pot with trailing rosemary around the base for scent and structure – perfect for renters or balcony gardeners wanting movable colour.
Warm‑toned mixed border – Weave Speelwark among daylilies and lilac for layered apricot, purple and green tones – ideal for family gardens that need long‑season interest with simple upkeep.

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.
