INES SASTRE® – pink-white climbing rose – Meilland
Bring a touch of romantic drama to your Irish cottage walls or a compact city terrace with INES SASTRE®, a striped climbing rose that transforms even a small front garden into a soft-focus backdrop of colour and charm. Its extra-large, raspberry-and-cream blooms repeat generously through the season, so you can enjoy long-lasting flowers with only light deadheading and simple routine care. On its own roots it establishes steadily and repays patient planting with a naturally long-lived, regenerating structure that copes reliably with our damp air and frequent showers, even where summer is short yet mild. Over the first three years you will see roots settle, then shoots extend, and finally full ornamental impact develop along fences, pergolas and porch arches, creating that gentle, rain-kissed, cottage-garden ambience you can step into every day.
Freshly opened Ines Sastre® bloom with vivid raspberry-pink petals and creamy-white striping.
Very double, cupped blooms with 40+ petals.
Usage options
Target area
Reasoning
Front-garden arch or porch entrance
The extra-large, raspberry-and-cream striped blooms give immediate visual impact on a modest arch or porch, while remontant flowering keeps the display going without complex pruning, ideal for beginners and busy-urban gardeners.
Cottage-style boundary fence
Planted at 150–225 cm intervals, this climber’s dense foliage and repeat flowering create a soft, romantic boundary that works beautifully with informal cottage plantings and still needs only straightforward seasonal tidying for hobby-gardeners.
Small pergola beside a seating area
The creeping, flexible growth habit makes it easy to train over a compact pergola, giving dappled colour and shade without overwhelming the space, suiting families who want atmosphere, not high-maintenance tasks, especially in short, mild summers for relaxed-homeowners.
Statement climber on a sunny gable wall
On its own roots, INES SASTRE® builds a durable framework that rebounds well after wind or occasional dieback, extending the plant’s useful life and ornamental value on exposed walls for long-term planners.
Mixed flowering screen with shrubs
Used at hedging spacing, it threads colour through existing evergreen or deciduous shrubs, and medium care needs mean normal feeding, watering and deadheading are enough for reliable results for time-pressed-owners.
Large container on patio or roof terrace
In a 40–50 litre or larger container with good drainage, it can be trained up a trellis to bring vertical interest and continuous colour close to the house, suiting compact, paved spaces for city-balcony gardeners.
Decorative cutting corner
Clustered, very double XL blooms on long stems make distinctive striped cut flowers; planting a small group at 0,4–0,5 plants/m² creates a simple home cutting patch for creative-arrangers.
Family play-garden backdrop
The sparsely thorned canes and dense, glossy foliage form a softer-feeling backdrop for family spaces, with only moderate pest and disease care needed to keep it attractive for young-family households.
Styling ideas
Cottage-arch romance – Train INES SASTRE® over a narrow arch, underplant with bee balm and obedient plant for soft pink and purple froth – perfect for homeowners dreaming of a storybook cottage entrance.
Striped-frontage charm – Use along a Dublin terrace railing with low evergreen honeysuckle groundcover to frame the variegated blooms – ideal for city dwellers wanting character without complex planting.
Pastel-relaxation corner – Grow it over a small pergola by a bench, with pale perennials in containers beneath – suited to those seeking a calm, easy-care seating nook.
Feature-wall gallery – Fan-train against a sunny gable, spacing plants widely for individual flower display, and combine with simple gravel mulch – great for beginners wanting a manageable statement.
Balcony-showpiece – Plant one rose in a deep 50-litre pot with a slim obelisk, pairing with low herbs to soften the base – perfect for balcony or patio owners short on space but keen on romance.
Technical cultivar profile
Parameter
Data
Name and registration
INES SASTRE® Romantica® MEIteratol, ARS exhibition name Raspberry Cream Twirl; large-flowered climbing rose in the Rós dreapadó commercial group, bred and marketed internationally.
Origin and breeding
Bred by Alain Antoine Meilland, Meilland International SA, France, from ‘Meinoiral’ × (‘Meihestries’ × ‘Meidomonac’), introduced and registered in 2012 following breeding work completed in 2010.
Awards and recognition
1st prize at the Hradec Králové International Rose Competition in the Czech Republic in 2012, highlighting ornamental value and garden performance under independent trial conditions.
Growth and structural characteristics
Creeping, trainable climbing habit, typically 180–280 cm high with 90–160 cm spread; dense, glossy dark green foliage, sparsely thorned canes, moderate vigour suited to small domestic structures.
Flower morphology
Very double, cupped blooms with over 40 petals, extra-large diameter above 10 cm, produced in clusters of 3–5 per stem; remontant with particularly abundant second flush after initial summer flowering.
Colour data and phenology
Raspberry-pink ground with irregular cream-white stripes and speckles; ARS code PB, RHS 58C outer, 60B inner; colours soften as blooms open, becoming pale pink with blurred rosy-white streaking in full bloom.
Fragrance and aroma
Fragrance is very weak, with a fresh, faintly apple-like character detectable only at close range; chosen more for striking striped colour and flower form than for strong scent in garden use.
Hip characteristics
Hip set generally low due to very double flower form; when present, produces small spherical red hips around 6–10 mm diameter, which add minor seasonal interest rather than being a main feature.
Resistance and winter hardiness
Hardy to approximately −26 to −23 °C (RHS H7, Swedish zone 4, USDA 5b); medium resistance to black spot, powdery mildew and rust, with regular watering needed in prolonged dry, hot periods.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in full sun with fertile, well-drained soil; space 140–225 cm depending on use; suitable for walls, fences, arches, pergolas and large containers; medium maintenance with occasional pest and disease checks.
INES SASTRE® offers dramatic striped XL blooms, a manageable climbing habit and long-lived own-root reliability, making it a cultured choice for adding romantic structure to everyday gardens; consider it if you value lasting beauty with modest effort.

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.
