More information

Tausendschon is winter-hardy, thornless, disease-resistant, and blooms very abundantly. The cultivar’s name reflects its color-shifting flowers in white, pale pink, salmon-pink, and cream. The blooms open a dense pink, then fade to pale pink, while the central petals remain cream. Flowers are double, with wavy petals, and appear in large clusters at the ends of long shoots (20-40 pieces). The leaves are soft green, shading the flowers, and the flexible shoots are easy to guide on a support.

Bred by Kiese, Tausendschon is among the most winter-hardy of the variegated roses and is widely distributed worldwide. The flowers are medium-sized (6 cm), double, with wavy petals. The name “thousand beauties” refers to the color range: shades of white, pale pink, warm pink, and cream. When they first open, the blooms are dark pink, fading to pale pink, while the centers open cream and retain this shade for a long time. Flowers appear in large clusters at the ends of strong shoots, 20-40 per cluster, with a light musk scent. The foliage is tender-green, disease-resistant, shading the softly colored blooms, and the smooth shoots bend well and are easy to guide. The bush reaches 3-4m.
