PARIS – pink nostalgia rose – Kimura
PARIS is a nostalgic shrub rose that brings a sense of soft Parisian romance to small Irish gardens, with creamy pink rosette blooms that repeat generously through the season and cope well with cool summers and gentle Atlantic showers. Medium maintenance yet reassuringly robust, it settles steadily as an own‑root plant, rewarding patient gardeners with increasing abundance and a long garden life. Plant in sun with good drainage on heavier soils, add organic mulch, and enjoy its medium‑strong, softly spicy fragrance drifting along a cottage path or terraced‑house railing. Over time, its dense mid‑green foliage builds a bushy structure that anchors borders, while the long‑lasting cuts are perfect for a simple kitchen vase. With the natural rhythm of Year 1 roots, Year 2 shoots, Year 3 full ornamental value, PARIS offers a quietly charming focal point for relaxed everyday strolls.

Usage options
Target area
Reasoning
Front cottage border beside a path
Compact height and bushy habit make PARIS ideal near paths where its pastel rosette blooms and medium, spicy fragrance can be enjoyed up close without overwhelming the space; a lovely, manageable choice for the fragrance‑loving beginner.
Dublin terraced-house front garden feature
Its nostalgic flower form and soft pink‑to‑cream colouring suit period brickwork and railings, giving a romantic yet tidy look with repeat flowering in shorter Irish summers; perfect for the busy urban homeowner.
Small mixed flowerbed with perennials
Moderate size and dense foliage allow easy pairing with low yarrow or blue globe thistle, while own‑root vigour supports a long‑term planting plan with stable shape and colour; reassuring for long‑range‑planning gardeners.
Informal low hedge or boundary line
Regular spacing at 50–60 cm creates a soft, flowering division between front and back garden; its medium maintenance and reliable hardiness to around −25 °C give durable structure for practical family‑garden owners.
Cut-flower corner in a sunny bed
Medium‑sized, fully double rosette blooms last well in the vase, bringing a gentle, nostalgic look indoors; repeat flowering gives several flushes for cutting through summer, attractive to creative, bouquet‑loving buyers.
Standalone specimen near a seating area
At around 70–95 cm, a single shrub in a favoured spot offers an elegant focal point with pastel tones and clearly noticeable scent, without demanding complex care routines, well suited to relaxation‑oriented patio sitters.
Own-root long-term family-garden planting
As an own‑root shrub, PARIS regenerates from its base if pruned hard or weather‑damaged, so the plant’s character stays true over many years, giving dependable continuity for future‑minded family gardens.
Well-drained clay border with good sun
When planted with improved drainage and a mulch layer, PARIS copes reliably with wet, changeable Irish weather and cool summers while still repeating, matching the realities of breezy, rain‑washed Atlantic gardens for practical Irish gardeners.
Styling ideas
Cottage-Romantic Drift – Plant PARIS in a loose line with low Achillea and soft grasses for a gentle pink and cream haze along a front path – ideal for cottage‑style dreamers.
ParisianDoorway – Flank a terraced‑house door with two shrubs underplanted with white violas for year‑round charm – perfect for style‑conscious city dwellers.
PastelCuttingPatch – Group three plants in a sunny corner with blue globe thistle for contrast and harvest armfuls of nostalgic stems – made for home florists.
SoftBoundaryBand – Use a staggered row at 50–60 cm spacing to edge lawns, letting flowers drift above mid‑green foliage – suited to families wanting gentle structure.
EveningSeatingNook – Position one or three shrubs near a bench, with pale campanulas, to enjoy scent and soft colour after work – ideal for busy evening relaxers.
Technical cultivar profile
Parameter
Data
Name and registration
PARIS – Romantic Rose collection; shrub nostalgia rose, trade name PARIS Romantic Rose Kimura, exhibition category cut flower and shrub rose; commercial group Rós rómánsúil for garden and cutting use.
Origin and breeding
Bred by Takunori Kimura in Japan, introduced in 2013 via Keihan Hirakata Nursery; parentage unknown, selected for romantic flower form and pastel colouring suited to both gardens and cutting.
Growth and structural characteristics
Bushy shrub 70–95 cm high and 50–75 cm wide, with dense mid‑green, slightly glossy foliage and moderate prickles; flowers are long‑lasting on the plant and need occasional deadheading for neatness.
Flower morphology
Medium blooms 4–7 cm across, fully double with 40+ petals, rosette form, usually solitary on stems; remontant with a generous second flush, best performance in sunny, open positions.
Colour data and phenology
Pale pastel pink with a subtle creamy hue; buds whitish‑rosy, opening to soft pink centres and almost white outer petals, then fading to creamy white with only a gentle pink tinge remaining at the edges.
Fragrance and aroma
Medium‑strength fragrance, clearly noticeable in still air; a softly spicy, classic rose scent that works well near seating areas or paths where flowers are close to nose height.
Hip characteristics
Rose hips form sparsely; when present, they are spherical, orange‑red (RHS 40A), about 8–12 mm in diameter, adding a small decorative autumn accent without dominating the shrub.
Resistance and winter hardiness
Winter hardy to approximately −26 to −23 °C (RHS H7, USDA 5b); disease resistance medium to mildew, black spot and rust, benefits from sunny planting, air movement and occasional protection in humid seasons.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in full sun with fertile, well‑drained soil; improve heavy clay with organic matter and grit. Space 50–100 cm depending on use; suitable containers should be 40–50 litres or larger for long‑term growth.
PARIS combines repeat flowering, romantic pastel blooms and dependable own-root longevity, making it a graceful, long-term choice for those who appreciate quietly nostalgic roses; consider it if you want lasting charm with manageable care.

Product Identification Data

Product Type:
antoniaROSE® ORIGINAL - rós i bpota 2 lítear ar a fhréamhacha féin
Pollinator Attraction:
Semi-double (13–25 petals) flowers moderately attract pollinators, as the semi-double flower form and reduced accessibility of the stamens limit their attractiveness.
Pollinator-Friendly Rating:
Its very double flowers usually conceal the stamens, so it only moderately attracts pollinators and 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.
