AMANDINE CHANEL™ – pink nostalgia rose – Massad
Step out to the front door after rain and meet a row of romantic pink rosettes from AMANDINE CHANEL™, an easy-going shrub rose that settles happily into Irish cottage borders and compact Dublin front gardens. This own-root plant is naturally reliable, building strength year by year for a long, steady life in your soil. Its gently fruity fragrance and soft, strawberry-pink blooms bring a quietly cheerful mood to everyday walks down the path. Medium-height, bushy growth makes it practical for narrow beds and low, flowery hedges, while dense foliage gives a softly green backdrop to your other perennials. Designed for flower beds rather than show benches, it offers lasting display across the season, even where summers are short and damp with frequent showers and mild fungal pressure. Think of it as a patient companion: rooting in during the first year, building flowering shoots in the second, and by the third year giving you its full cottage charm.

Usage options
Target area
Reasoning
Front garden statement rose by the gate or doorstep
Bushy 85–115 cm growth and dense, mid-green foliage create a welcoming, well-dressed entrance without needing elaborate pruning, ideal for small Dublin terraces aiming for soft, romantic kerb appeal for the style-conscious homeowner
Cottage-style mixed flower bed with perennials
Clustered rosette blooms in warm strawberry pink weave easily among lupins and baby’s-breath, giving a traditional cottage look, while remontant flowering keeps colour returning through the Irish summer for the relaxed gardener
Low, informal flowering hedge along a path
Recommended spacing of about 50–60 cm allows you to line paths or driveways with a soft, blooming hedge that guides the eye yet never feels overbearing, suiting families wanting structure without rigid formality for the busy family
Feature shrub in a small lawn or gravel island bed
As a solitary specimen at about 90 cm spacing, the rounded shape and nostalgic flower form stand out on their own, giving a “mini park” feel in even modest gardens, perfect for those who like a single clear focal point for the reflective observer
Cut flowers for the kitchen table or hallway
Medium-sized, double, rosette blooms on bushy stems are well suited to short indoor arrangements, bringing gentle fruity fragrance and romance indoors without requiring a dedicated cutting garden for the scent-loving collector
Family garden bed with moderate-maintenance planting
Medium maintenance and disease resistance mean simple routines: good drainage on heavier clay, a mulch layer, and occasional plant protection where needed, suiting those who prefer light, predictable care for the time-poor beginner
Own-root long-term planting in established borders
As an own-root shrub, it builds a durable framework, can regenerate from its base if damaged, and maintains true-to-type flowering over many years rather than relying on a graft, reassuring anyone planning for the long term for the practical planner
Sunny, sheltered spot in wetter, windier regions
Choosing a reasonably sunny, drained place helps the rose flower reliably even where frequent Atlantic showers and mild fungal pressure can challenge more delicate varieties, a sensible match for Irish coastal-edge gardens for the weather-aware owner
Styling ideas
Cottage-Romantic Border – Combine with Lupinus ‘Gallery Pink’ and low gypsophila for a layered, pastel cottage look beside a picket fence – ideal for lovers of soft, traditional schemes
Terrace-Front Welcome – Repeat three shrubs along a short front wall with gravel and simple evergreens to frame a doorway – suited to urban homeowners seeking easy elegance
Nostalgic Path Hedge – Plant as a loose hedge along a garden path, interspersed with lavender for scent and contrast – good for families wanting charm without strict formality
Feature-Island Focus – Place one plant in a small circular bed in lawn, underplanted with spring bulbs for off-season interest – perfect for those who like a single focal rose
Soft-Pink Cutting Corner – Group a few plants with other pink-toned perennials near the house for quick access to cut blooms – great for fragrance enthusiasts who enjoy indoor bouquets

Flower morphology
Medium-sized, 4–7 cm, double rosette blooms with 26–39 petals, generally borne in clusters, remontant with abundant second flush, petals arranged in a nostalgic, full, romantic style reminiscent of old garden roses.

Product Identification Data

Product Type:
antoniaROSE® ORIGINAL - rós i bpota 2 lítear ar a fhréamhacha féin
Flower Colour:
Even strawberry-pink tone with a slight warm undertone.
Closed Bud:
Deep, vivid pink, with a slightly darker shade at the tip.
Freshly Opened Flower:
Rich Strawberry - pink outer petals, paler inside with a coral tinge.
Full Bloom:
Warm mid-pink rosette, with the outer petals showing a subtle silvery back-sheen.
Pre-Fading Flower:
Fades to a delicate pastel pink, with a silvery-rosy fading at the edges.
Colour Fading Description:
Starting from deep pink it opens to a warm mid-pink, then before fading becomes a delicate pastel pink, with slight silvery fading at the edges.
Pollinator Attraction:
Double, with 26–39 petals, and with reduced stamen accessibility, it attracts pollinators only to a limited extent.
Pollinator-Friendly Rating:
Double (26–39‑petalled) flowers partly conceal the stamens, so its pollinator-friendliness is limited; it is primarily an ornamental variety.
Rose Hip Notes:
Rose hip formation is expected to be limited due to the double flowers; occasionally spherical, orange-red hips 7–9 mm in diameter may appear.

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.
