BLUSH™ WINTERJEWEL® – pale pink nostalgic rose
Step out to a London front garden after rain and meet a rose bred for balance, where classic beauty meets modern resilience in compact, bushy form. BLUSH™ WINTERJEWEL® keeps its nostalgic rosette blooms coming in generous waves for a long season, even in small urban plots where space is at a premium. Its dark, glossy foliage and pale pink flowers create a calm focus in clay-based soils, helping you cope gracefully with wet weather and heavy ground in exposed, breezy sites. Cold-hardy and long-lived, this own-root shrub builds quietly from roots in year one to strong shoots in year two, before reaching full ornamental impact by year three. Ideal for easy-care hedges, low-maintenance containers of 40–50 litres or more, or a softly romantic border, it rewards relaxed gardeners who value reliability over effort.

Usage options
Target area
Reasoning
Low-maintenance family border
The bushy, compact habit and repeat flowering create a dependable feature with little intervention beyond basic pruning and mulching, giving a softly romantic look that fits busy weekly routines for the beginner.
Cold-exposed or frosty spots
Exceptionally hardy down to around –34 °C, this shrub shrugs off typical UK winter frosts, maintaining framework and bud wood so you are not replanting after severe winters as a homeowner.
Small front-garden hedge
Recommended hedge spacing and dense, glossy foliage allow you to form a neat, waist-height informal hedge that screens bins or parked cars while keeping paths welcoming for the family.
Rainwater-conscious clay or chalk beds
Performs reliably in typical British conditions when planted into improved heavy clay or free-draining chalk, providing structure and bloom where other shrubs struggle in wetter, wind-prone gardens for the urbanite.
Medium to large containers
Suited to 40–50 litre or larger pots with peat-free compost, this variety makes an elegant, upright feature for doorsteps or balconies, combining long flowering with straightforward routine watering for the balcony-owner.
Long-season focal point near seating
Remontant flowering with an abundant second flush ensures colour through much of the season, while the mild classic rose scent adds gentle atmosphere without overwhelming close sitting areas for the relaxer.
Own-root, long-lived planting schemes
Grown on its own roots, the plant regenerates steadily from the base, keeping form and colour consistent over many years, reducing replacement costs and replanting work for the planner.
Romantic mixed planting with perennials
The soft pale-pink rosettes pair beautifully with cool-toned perennials such as nepeta, lavender or sage, giving a timeless, “girly” cottage feel that matures gracefully over seasons for the stylist.
Styling ideas
Front-door welcome – Flank a terraced-house doorstep with two large containers of BLUSH™ WINTERJEWEL® underplanted with trailing lobelia – for city dwellers wanting a soft, nostalgic entrance.
Rain-garden ribbon – Line a permeable gravel path beside a rainwater rill, weaving the shrubs with airy gypsophila – for eco-conscious gardeners managing runoff beautifully.
Cottage hedge – Plant a low, informal hedge and thread through sage and nepeta for contrast – for families seeking gentle privacy without harsh fencing.
Balcony accent – Use a single specimen in a generous 50-litre pot with thyme at the base – for busy professionals desiring calm, low-effort greenery.
Winter backbone – Combine this hardy shrub with evergreen grasses and hellebores to hold structure when flowers rest – for year-round planners designing resilient planting.

Origin and breeding
Bred by Biljana Božanić Tanjga for PhenoGeno Roses, Serbia; introduced by PhenoGeno Roses in the Netherlands in 2014, with breeding completed before this date; parentage has not been disclosed.
Growth and structural characteristics
Bushy shrub rose reaching about 70–100 cm high and 50–70 cm wide, with dense, dark green, glossy foliage and moderate prickles; forms a compact, well-branched plant suited to groups and low hedges.
Flower morphology
Double, rosette-shaped blooms with 26–39 petals, large-flowered clusters around 7–10 cm across; remontant with an abundant second flush, carried mainly in clusters for a generous, nostalgic effect.
Colour data and phenology
Pale pink blooms, RHS 65C outer and 65D inner, opening light pastel pink and gradually fading towards almost whitish tones; overall effect is delicate and translucent, with colour softening as flowers age.
Fragrance and aroma
Mild, classic rose fragrance with a traditional garden-rose character; scent is present but not overpowering, making it suitable near doors, windows or seating areas where subtle perfume is preferred.

Resistance and winter hardiness
Rated very hardy (RHS H7, USDA zone 4a, Swedish zone 5) tolerating around –34 to –32 °C; good resistance reported to black spot, powdery mildew and rust, supporting low chemical input gardening.

Detailed product attributes
Product Identification Data
Product Name:
BLUSH™ WINTERJEWEL® – pale pink nostalgic rose - Tanjga
Product Type:
eleanorROSE® ORIGINAL - 2-litre own-root potted rose
Meaning of Cultivar Name:
The word 'Blush' denotes a pale, reddish-pink shade, while 'Winterjewel' means 'the jewel of winter', referring to its outstanding frost tolerance.
Pollinator Attraction:
With double (26–39 petal) blooms it is of low attractiveness to pollinators, as the double flower form often conceals or obstructs the stamens and thus reduces access to nectar and pollen.
Pollinator-Friendly Rating:
Due to its double (26–39 petals) flowers it is only limitedly pollinator-friendly, a variety primarily valued for its ornamental qualities.

Information about the videos
The video series is not a “seasonal showcase”; it illustrates the essence of pharmaROSA® own-root cultivation in a tangible way: how the plant is built up, what the root system is like and how the shoot system regenerates. The recordings were therefore made at different times and with plants at various stages of development, so mixed foliage levels and differing stages of growth may appear in the videos. They are not a ‘sample’ of the batch dispatched, but a visual explanation of how the technology works. The current condition of the rose available to order — typical for the given period and similar to what you can expect to receive in the parcel — is shown in the upper part of the product page.
