Pas de Deux Courtyard® – POUlhult climbing rose
Step through your front gate and let Pas de Deux Courtyard® frame your path with softly shifting petals in pale pink and warm yellow, settling into powder-pastel arches that feel effortlessly elegant. This compact climber is bred for reliably healthy, disease-resistant growth, coping calmly with wet, blustery spells and the kind of cool, damp summers that often challenge UK gardens on heavier soils and exposed sites, while its glossy mid-green foliage stays reassuringly tidy. You can enjoy abundant repeat-flowering flushes with only light seasonal tidying, as its moderate self-cleaning makes spent blooms simple to manage even in a narrow, rainwater-conscious front garden. Own-root planting gives you a quietly robust structure that matures steadily, offering dependable longevity and graceful regeneration from the base if stems are damaged or pruned back hard. Semi-double clusters open with a delicate fragrance that suits evening windows and small courtyards, yet remains gentle and unobtrusive. Ideal for modern urban living, it settles happily into large containers from 40–50 litres or more, or against walls, railings and pergolas where space is at a premium. Over the first few seasons Pas de Deux Courtyard® develops from focused root establishment to stronger shoots and, by the third year, a well-furnished framework that delivers its full ornamental impact across the flowering months, supporting a calm, balanced garden rhythm with minimal effort from you.

Usage options
Target area
Reasoning
Small front garden arch or porch
The compact climbing habit and moderate height make it ideal for training over a simple metal arch or porch frame without overwhelming a narrow London-style front garden. Its restrained growth keeps paths clear for busy homeowners.
Courtyard wall or trellis
Densely clothed, glossy foliage and uniform, balanced growth create a neat vertical panel on walls or trellis, providing privacy without demanding constant pruning. Reliable disease resistance means fewer treatments for time-poor gardeners.
Large container on terrace or balcony
In a 40–50 litre or larger container, own-root plants establish a durable framework that responds well to occasional hard pruning, regenerating from the base and giving long-term value in tight spaces for urban balcony owners.
Rainwater-conscious front garden design
Suited to areas where rain and wind regularly test planting, its healthy foliage and resilient flowering cope well with exposed, wet conditions typical of many UK streetscapes on heavier soils for sustainability-minded households.
Family side path pergola
Medium-sized semi-double clusters and moderate prickliness make it easier to keep trained above head height along a pergola, creating a soft tunnel of colour that children and adults can pass under comfortably for family gardeners.
Part-shaded city garden corner
Good performance in partial shade allows you to brighten awkward corners where full sun is limited between buildings, maintaining flower production and foliage quality with little intervention for courtyard garden owners.
Low-maintenance feature by doorway
Remontant flowering with a generous second flush provides colour by the front door for much of the season, with only light deadheading and annual tying-in needed to keep it looking composed for beginner gardeners.
Informal romantic planting with perennials
The powder-pink and soft-yellow tones blend easily with lavender, sage or nepeta, creating a gentle, “girly” front-garden mood that feels considered yet relaxed, while its tidy framework anchors the scene for style-focused owners.
Styling ideas
Pastel-Arch – Train Pas de Deux Courtyard® over a slim metal arch, underplant with soft nepeta and pale pink verbena for a romantic welcome – ideal for compact terraced-house fronts.
Balcony-Bower – Grow it in a 50-litre pot with a slim obelisk, adding trailing thyme and violas for soft edges – suited to renters seeking movable vertical colour.
Courtyard-Frame – Fan-train along a narrow trellis beside a bistro set, with pots of lavender and sage echoing the pastel blooms – perfect for small urban courtyards.
Doorway-Drape – Guide stems around a front door with chives and low euphorbia at the base, keeping paths clear yet inviting – great for busy families wanting easy impact.
Pergola-Veil – Space plants along a light timber pergola, interweaving with New Zealand flax for contrast and year-round structure – for homeowners wanting a long-lived garden feature.

Detailed product attributes
Product Identification Data
Product Name:
PAS DE DEUX – pale pink-yellow climbing rose - Olesen
Product Type:
eleanorROSE® ORIGINAL - 2-litre own-root potted rose
Pollinator Attraction:
Semi-double flowers are moderately attractive to pollinators because the partially filled bloom form reduces stamen accessibility, limiting pollinators' ability to reach nectar and pollen.
Pollinator-Friendly Rating:
Its semi-double flowers mean its pollinator-friendliness is limited; it attracts few pollinators.
Hip Comment:
Hip formation is expected to be limited because of the double flowers; occasionally spherical orange-red hips 9–12 mm in diameter may form.

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.
