PAOLINA™ – pale pink nostalgia rose
Let Paolina bring a soft, romantic glow to your Irish garden: large, cupped blooms in a gentle seashell pink, held on a bushy shrub that fits beautifully into both cottage borders and Dublin front gardens. Its medium, sweetly rosy fragrance invites you outside for a short stroll, even after showers when the petals look freshly washed in the soft light. As an own-root shrub, it offers reassuring longevity, steady regrowth after pruning or weather damage, and a calm, predictable shape over the years. With simple care and good drainage, it settles in reliably despite our damp summers and fungal pressure, rewarding you with repeat flowering right into autumn. Plant once, and enjoy its romantic, cottage-style charm as it moves from quiet establishment to fuller presence, following the natural rhythm of strong roots in the first year, more shoots and flowers in the second, and real ornamental impact by the third.

Usage options
Target area
Reasoning
Romantic focal shrub near a seating area
Large, cupped pastel blooms and a medium, sweet fragrance make this an ideal “sit nearby and unwind” rose for a small terrace or lawn edge, giving a cottage feel without needing a huge border – perfect for fragrance-loving homeowners.
Cottage-style mixed border in a family garden
The bushy habit and soft pink colour work beautifully with perennials and grasses, adding structure while still looking light and airy, so the border stays charming rather than formal – well suited to relaxed hobby-gardeners.
Dublin terraced-house front garden feature
A single shrub gives plenty of flower power in a tight space, softening railings or low walls and bringing a friendly, nostalgic note to the street without demanding advanced skills – ideal for busy urban beginners.
Own-root rose for long-term planting schemes
Being grown on its own roots means no graft union to fail, so the plant keeps its character over many years, with reliable regrowth from the base if winter or pruning are harsh – reassuring for long-view planners.
Season-long flowering accent near a path
Remontant, with a plentiful second flush, it keeps sending up new blooms so a short walk to the gate or bin store still feels pleasantly garden-like well into autumn – rewarding for time-poor gardeners.
Large decorative container on patio or balcony
In a 40–50 litre container with good drainage and regular feeding, this shrub gives big, romantic flowers at eye level while remaining manageable to prune and tend – a strong choice for container-focused residents.
Soft-hedge or loose row along a boundary
Planted at around 1,0 m intervals, its moderately dense foliage and rounded shape create a gentle living screen that feels welcoming rather than formal, ideal where families want privacy without a hard fence – attractive to sociable neighbours.
Feature rose in exposed, rainy Irish conditions
With thoughtful siting and mulch over free-draining soil, it copes reliably, even where frequent showers, strong breezes and lingering damp are part of everyday gardening life – realistic for weather-aware garden-owners.
Styling ideas
COTTAGE BORDER DUO – Pair Paolina with Stachys byzantina and soft grasses for a silver-and-pink haze that looks charming from the kitchen window – ideal for relaxed family gardeners.
FRONT-GARDEN WELCOME – Flank a short path with two shrubs underplanted with low lavender or catmint to create a scented welcome without visual clutter – perfect for Dublin terrace entrances.
ROMANTIC CONTAINER – Plant Paolina in a 50 litre terracotta pot with trailing ivy and pale violas for year-round softness on a patio – suited to balcony and courtyard dwellers.
SOFT-FOCUS HEDGE – Use a loose line of Paolina backed by dark green evergreens so the pink flowers “float” against a calm background – great for design-conscious homeowners.
EVENING SEATING NOOK – Position near a bench with white campanulas and hostas so the pale blooms and fragrance stand out in low light – ideal for those who unwind outdoors after work.
Technical cultivar profile
Characteristic
Data
Name and registration
Paolina™ Renaissance®, registered as POUlren048, a shrub-type Romantica nostalgia rose in the Rós rómánsúil group, approved exhibition name Paolina, for garden and decorative use.
Origin and breeding
Bred by L. Pernille and Mogens Nyegaard Olesen for Poulsen Roser A/S in Denmark, breeding year 2021, registered 2023 and introduced 2024, with parentage not publicly disclosed.
Growth and structural characteristics
Bushy shrub rose, typically 110–150 cm high and 100–140 cm wide, moderately thorny, with slightly glossy, dark green leaves of medium density, forming a rounded, substantial garden presence.
Flower morphology
Double, cupped blooms 7–10 cm across, carried in clusters, with 26–39 petals; remontant habit providing a generous second flush of flowers after the main early-summer display.
Colour data and phenology
Pale pink with a delicate seashell hue, ARS code LP, RHS 65D outer and 62C inner; colour fades gently to powder pink and near-white edges as blooms mature, while overall tone remains soft and harmonious.
Fragrance and aroma
Medium-strength, sweet rosy fragrance noticeable on still days and in the evening; sufficiently strong to enjoy from nearby seating, yet not overpowering when used close to doors or windows.
Hip characteristics
Rose hips rarely form; if present, fruits are very small, up to about 4 mm in diameter, so ornamental and wildlife value from hips is minimal and does not affect the flowering display.
Resistance and winter hardiness
Hardy to approximately –26 to –23 °C (USDA 5b, RHS H7, Swedish zon 4); disease resistance is only moderate, needing regular protection against powdery mildew, black spot and particularly rust.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in sunny positions with fertile, well-drained soil; space at 100–110 cm in groups or hedges, up to 180 cm as specimen; suitable for beds, containers over 40 litres, and cutting for indoor vases.
PAOLINA™ offers fragrant, romantic pale-pink blooms, season-long flowering and long-lived own-root reliability, a thoughtful choice if you want lasting charm with manageable care in your garden.
Detailed product attributes
Product Identification Data
Product Name:
PAOLINA™ – pale pink nostalgia rose - Olesen & Olesen
Product Type:
antoniaROSE® ORIGINAL - rós i bpota 2 lítear ar a fhréamhacha féin
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.
