PARC DE LA BELLE – pink climbing rose – Dittière
This romantic climbing rose brings a soft, storybook feel to pergolas, archways and cottage-style fences, clothing its supports in clouds of delicately scented, pale pink blooms. The medium, fresh-fruity fragrance adds a gentle background note to afternoon tea outdoors, while its dense, dark green foliage creates a pleasing contrast with the pastel flowers. Own-root plants develop steadily, ensuring a long-lived, reliable presence in the garden with strong regrowth if stems are damaged or pruned hard. Over time, it forms an elegant vertical accent that makes the most of limited space in small and medium family gardens, and performs consistently even in gardens often exposed to brisk seaside breezes and changeable summer weather. You can enjoy its romantic, ball-shaped flowers without complex pruning regimes, simply tying in new shoots where you need height or coverage, letting the plant mature naturally through its first seasons into a stable, easy-to-manage part of your cottage-style border. From planting, expect a calm, gradual establishment – first concentrating on root strength, then building up shoots and finally delivering its full ornamental effect as it settles into your arbour or wall, fitting effortlessly into a relaxed, family-friendly garden layout. Its soft pastel colour palette is simple to coordinate with traditional perennials, and the 2-litre own-root format means you receive a well-started plant that can be set into beds or large containers throughout the main season for dependable, low-fuss coverage. With sensible siting, basic hygiene and the occasional tidy-up of spent blooms, it rewards patient gardeners with years of vertical structure and nostalgic charm in an English-countryside style outdoor retreat.

Target area
Reasoning
Climbing rose for pergolas and arbours
Its 170–260 cm height and flexible climbing habit allow it to drape gracefully over pergolas and arbours, creating a romantic overhead canopy of soft pink, ball-shaped blooms in summer and repeat flushes. Best for those seeking gentle vertical romance, especially beginners.
Space-saving rose for small and medium family gardens
The slim 70–110 cm spread and upright climbing form make it ideal where ground space is limited but height is available, giving a strong visual impact without crowding other plants. Perfect for small urban plots wanting cottage charm, particularly homeowners.
Pastel-toned backdrop in a cottage-style border
The delicate, pale pink flowers with good colour retention create a soft, unobtrusive background that flatters bolder perennials and traditional hedging, ideal for “girly” English-countryside schemes. Suited to those curating harmonious borders, mainly stylists.
Fragrant seating-area focal point
Medium-strength, fresh, fruity fragrance is noticeable without being overpowering, making it well suited near terraces, benches or kitchen-garden seating, enhancing everyday use of the space. Recommended for anyone who values scented relaxation, especially families.
Own-root planting for long-term garden structure
As an own-root plant it builds a robust framework that can regenerate from the base after hard pruning or winter damage, supporting a long-lived vertical feature with consistent flowering. Best for those planning for decades of use, particularly planners.
Training along fences, walls or screens
Its moderately thorny, pliable stems are easy to fan out against wires or trellis, providing attractive coverage and privacy while keeping maintenance simple: tie in new shoots and deadhead when convenient. Ideal for practical yet romantic screening, mainly neighbours.
Large-container cultivation on patios and balconies
In a 40–50 litre or larger container with good drainage, it can be grown as a vertical accent in paved spaces, bringing cottage-garden flowers where soil access is limited; expect strong root building in year one, then increasing flowering and presence by year three. Well suited to space-conscious urban gardeners, especially balcony-owners.
Coastal and wind-exposed gardens
With dense foliage and a resilient climbing structure, it copes well where breezes are frequent, helping to soften boundaries and structures in gardens that see gusty, changeable conditions typical of exposed sites near the coast. Designed for weather-aware gardeners, chiefly coast-dwellers.
Styling ideas
Pastel Archway – Train PARC DE LA BELLE over a metal arch and underplant with lavender and soft pink foxgloves to frame a cottage-style path – ideal for romantically inclined homeowners.
Kitchen-Corner – Grow it against a sunny shed or greenhouse wall with rosemary and chives at its feet, blending productive beds with decorative roses – perfect for kitchen-garden enthusiasts.
Cream-&-Blush – Combine its pale pink flowers with white Liatris spicata 'Alba' and silvery foliage plants to create a calm, airy border – suited to lovers of restrained, elegant planting.
Patio Pergola – In large 50 litre tubs, let it climb a wooden pergola over a terrace, mixing in scented herbs in smaller pots for an intimate tea corner – appealing to balcony and patio gardeners.
Storybook Fence – Weave its stems along a low rustic fence with Persicaria and cottage perennials for a soft, informal boundary – attractive to families seeking a traditional countryside feel.
Technical cultivar profile
Parameter
Data
Name and registration
Climbing rose cultivar from the Parc de la Belle line; current trade name PARC DE LA BELLE – pink climbing rose – Dittière; American Rose Society exhibition name listed as Parc de la Belle.
Origin and breeding
Bred in France by Jean-Pierre Dittière, introduced in 2005 through Roseraie Jardirose and associated nurseries; parentage unknown, selected for ornamental climbing use and pastel pink flower colour.
Growth and structural characteristics
Climbing growth habit reaching about 170–260 cm in height with 70–110 cm spread; dense, glossy dark green foliage, moderately thorny shoots and relatively flexible canes suitable for training on supports.
Flower morphology
Large, double flowers with about 26–39 petals, ball to pompon shaped, usually borne singly on stems; remontant, with a first flush followed by an abundant second flowering period in suitable conditions.
Colour data and phenology
Petals soft pink with a subtly warm tone, coded RHS 65B outside, 65C inside; newly opened blooms are mid-pink, then lighten and gently fade in strong sun while retaining an overall pastel effect.
Fragrance and aroma
Medium-strength, clearly perceptible scent described as fresh and fruity; fragrance level remains pleasant around seating areas without becoming overwhelming, especially effective during main flowering flushes.
Hip characteristics
Due to its double flowers, hip set is sparse; when present, it forms small spherical hips about 10–14 mm across, coloured red RHS 45A, adding modest late-season interest without prolific seeding.
Resistance and winter hardiness
Hardy to approximately –21 to –18 °C (RHS H7, roughly USDA 6b, Swedish zone 3); disease resistance is limited, with sensitivity to powdery mildew and rust and moderate susceptibility to black spot.
Horticultural recommendations
Prefers a sunny, well-drained position with training on arches, walls or pergolas; requires regular health checks, timely spraying where necessary and deadheading, plus tying in of new shoots for best coverage.

Detailed product attributes
Product Identification Data
Product Name:
PARC DE LA BELLE – pink climbing rose - Dittière
Product Type:
darinaROSE® ORIGINAL - 2-litre own-root potted rose
Pollinator Attraction:
Its highly double flower form makes it less attractive to pollinators because the stamens are largely obscured and therefore less accessible.
Pollinator-Friendly Rating:
Its double flowers partially cover the stamens, so its pollinator-friendliness is limited; primarily an ornamental variety.
Hip Comment:
Because of its double flowers, rose hip production is generally scant; it occasionally produces globular, red (RHS 45A) hips 10–14 mm in diameter.

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.
