PARIS – pink nostalgia rose – Kimura
Created for romantic, storybook gardens, PARIS is a nostalgia rose that brings pastel charm and medium, clearly scented blooms to small and medium family plots. Its bushy habit and dense, mid‑green foliage give a rounded structure that anchors cottage borders, while its remontant nature ensures continuity of flowering through the season with an especially abundant second flush. On its own roots it offers reassuring longevity, steadily building a strong framework and renewing from the base for a dependable display year after year. In typical British conditions it copes well where beds are exposed to breezy, wet weather, giving you poised reliability in more open situations. Flowers are fully double rosettes that invite close viewing, ideal beside seating, paths or a kitchen‑garden fence. As the seasons pass you will see it settle into your planting scheme, its graceful presence and softly spicy fragrance evoking the mood of an English cottage garden. With a medium maintenance level and straightforward pruning options, it offers genuine ease for busy home gardeners.

Usage options
Target area
Reasoning
Main cottage‑style flowerbed near the house
The bushy, rounded habit and dense foliage make PARIS a natural choice for the main bed you see from the house or terrace, where its pastel rosette blooms and medium fragrance create an inviting, romantic focus for cottage‑garden lovers
Low, traditional rose hedge along a path
Planted 50 cm apart, PARIS forms a low, structured hedge that frames paths or driveways without feeling formal; the consistent height and repeat flushes give a gentle, storybook rhythm ideal for family‑garden owners
Feature specimen by a bench or arbour
Used as a single specimen at wider spacing, the nostalgic rosette flowers can be appreciated up close while you sit, with the softly spicy, rose‑scented fragrance drifting at nose height, suiting relaxed afternoon tea for romantic traditionalists
Small mixed border in an urban family garden
The compact 70–95 cm height and 50–75 cm spread fit neatly into town gardens, threading easily among perennials without overwhelming the space, giving a polished yet cosy look that works well for busy urban gardeners
Long‑term planting in a settled family home
As an own‑root shrub, PARIS responds well to renewal pruning and can regenerate from the base, offering a long usable life and steady ornamental value, ideal where you want a rose to grow on with the home for long‑term planners
Coastal or breezier, rain‑exposed sites
Its bushy form and dense foliage help the plant ride out blustery, wet spells without looking bedraggled, supporting a reliable display even where beds feel a touch windswept for gardeners‑by‑the‑sea
Cutting patch within a kitchen or allotment garden
The medium, fully double flowers are carried mostly singly on sturdy stems, making it easy to cut nostalgic pink blooms for vases while the remontant habit refills the plant through summer for home‑bouquet makers
Large container on terrace or by the back door
In a 40–50 litre or larger container with good drainage, PARIS offers cottage‑garden romance where borders are limited, its modest size and structured habit allowing simple yearly pruning for container‑space gardeners
Styling ideas
COTTAGE BORDER – weave PARIS through a sunny border with low yarrow and soft grasses, letting its pastel blooms repeat between seasons – for lovers of relaxed, romantic country gardens
KITCHEN‑GARDEN EDGE – line a vegetable plot or herb bed with PARIS to soften straight rows, combining useful space with fragrant cutting stems – for practical gardeners who enjoy traditional charm
PINK‑AND‑WHITE – pair PARIS with white foxgloves and pale campanulas for a gentle, cohesive palette that flatters small urban plots – for colour‑coordinated, design‑conscious homeowners
STRUCTURED MIX – plant among compact evergreens and blue globe thistle to give year‑round shape, with the rose providing soft contrast in summer – for those wanting tidy structure without formality
SEATING‑CORNER – position PARIS close to a bench or arbour post, underplanted with scented herbs, to enjoy both fragrance and nostalgic blooms at eye level – for families who linger outdoors over tea

Origin and breeding
Bred by Takunori Kimura in Japan, 2013; parentage and breeding institution not recorded; initially distributed by Keihan Hirakata Nursery; introduced to wider markets from 2013 onwards.
Growth and structural characteristics
Bushy shrub rose reaching about 70–95 cm in height and 50–75 cm spread; dense, mid‑green, slightly glossy foliage; moderately thorny stems; weak self‑cleaning, so spent blooms may need occasional removal.
Flower morphology
Fully double, rosette‑shaped blooms with more than 40 petals; medium flower size on mainly solitary stems; clearly remontant with an abundant second flush, providing good garden effect through the main season.
Colour data and phenology
Pale pastel pink with a subtle creamy hue; buds whitish‑rosy with powder‑pink tips; newly opened flowers show creamy outer petals and soft pink centres, fading gradually to creamy white with a delicate pink tinge.
Fragrance and aroma
Medium‑strength, clearly perceptible scent with a softly spicy, classic rose character; best appreciated at close range around seating areas or paths; mainly grown as an ornamental rather than for perfume use.
Hip characteristics
Hip set is usually sparse; when present, hips are small, spherical, about 8–12 mm in diameter, in an orange‑red shade (RHS 40A), offering modest late‑season interest without dominating the plant’s appearance.
Resistance and winter hardiness
Hardy to around −26 to −23 °C (RHS H7, Swedish Zone 4, USDA 5b); medium disease resistance to black spot, powdery mildew and rust; performs well in heat with watering during extended dry spells.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in full sun with well‑prepared soil; plant 60 cm apart in beds, 50 cm in hedges or 100 cm as a specimen; needs occasional plant protection and dead‑heading; suitable for beds, feature planting and cutting.
PARIS – pink nostalgia rose – Kimura offers compact structure, repeat flowering and softly scented blooms on a durable own‑root shrub, making it a thoughtful, long‑lived choice for your next planting decision.
Detailed product attributes
Product Identification Data
Product Name:
PARIS – pink nostalgia rose - Kimura
Product Type:
darinaROSE® ORIGINAL - 2-litre own-root potted rose
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”; 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.
