Japanese rose Princess Hitomi (Beautiful history) at a glance
Let yourself be enchanted by Princess Hitomi™, a true gem among Japanese roses, brought to Europe exclusively by Belle Époque. This ‘Beautiful History’ rose, honored with the prestigious SAF Blue Ribbon Award in its homeland, opens its lush flowers in a pure cotton-pink shade. Each petal is a work of art: the inner petals form delicate hearts, while the outer petals gracefully curl outward into a perfect star shape. A subtle lavender fragrance completes this unique appearance, turning every bloom into a sensory experience.
With its elegant, compact growth of 100–150 cm, Princess Hitomi™ is an ideal shrub rose for both the open ground and a spacious pot (from Ø 50 cm). Create an enchanting focal point in your border, along a path, or as the centerpiece of your terrace. Its impressive flowers, measuring up to 13 cm in diameter and containing approximately 85 petals, are also perfectly suited as exclusive cut flowers, bringing a touch of Japanese elegance into your home. A must-have for the pioneering rose enthusiast looking for something truly special.

Positieve eerste indruk
Ik heb deze roos nog niet zo heel erg lang in mijn tuin staan dus het is nog niet mogelijk om een uitgebreide review te geven, maar mijn eerste indruk is positief.
De roos was goed verpakt en zag er gezond uit. Na het planten in mijn tuin deed ze het ook meteen vrij goed, heb niet echt een transplant shock gemerkt. Ik heb miccorhizal fungus gebruikt bij het aanplanten en de roos heeft de eerste week veel regen gehad.
Ondertussen staat er een eerste roos in bloei en die ziet er al erg mooi uit. Ik kijk er al naar uit hoe deze roos het gaat doen over een paar jaar.
