KATRINA HIT® – orange dwarf mini rose
For compact colour and effortless impact in a small garden, KATRINA HIT® brings neat, upright growth and a succession of warm orange blooms in a tidy, easily managed footprint. This miniature shrub fits naturally into British front gardens and cottage-style borders where space is at a premium yet you still want reliable flowering from late spring onwards. Its good disease resistance and strong own-root constitution support a long-lived structure that stands up well even in wetter, breezier weather with attention only to simple drainage. The well-rooted 2‑litre plant establishes quickly in beds, edging or roomy containers, then needs little more than basic watering and occasional feeding. Expect a steady development from settling roots to stronger shoots and then full ornamental value over the first three years, with clean self-shedding blooms that keep the shrub looking tidy without constant deadheading.

Usage options
Target area
Reasoning
Front garden focal point near the entrance
The compact, upright habit and vivid orange flowers give a clear focal point without overwhelming a modest space, ideal beside a path or doorway where you see it every day but do not want complex upkeep – reassuring for the beginner.
Low edging along paths and driveways
At around 45–55 cm high with good self-cleaning, it forms a neat, low edging line that stays visually ordered even with minimal deadheading, suiting busy households who want structure and colour but limited routine work – attractive for the homeowner.
Small beds in family back gardens
The modest spread and repeat flowering allow you to plan small rose beds that remain balanced as the plant matures, avoiding overcrowding while still providing a long season of colour the family can enjoy from the patio – ideal for the family.
Containers and large patio pots (40–50 litres and above)
Its dwarf size and upright framework suit generous, well-drained containers, giving a long-term, easily managed feature on patios or balconies; own-root growth helps it recover well if pruning is occasionally delayed – convenient for the urbanite.
Mixed cottage-style borders
The warm mid-orange blends naturally with traditional perennials such as lady’s mantle and alpine catchfly, offering soft cottage colour without demanding staking or specialist care, and integrating seamlessly into informal planting – appealing to the stylist.
Low-maintenance rose compositions
Good resistance to key fungal diseases means less spraying and fewer worries about humid, changeable summers, supporting simple care routines where you mainly water, feed and lightly prune once established – reassuring for the busy.
Exposed or open-family gardens
The sturdy, compact framework and H7 hardiness offer stability in ordinary British winters and cope well with unsettled, breezy spells, provided the planting spot has reasonable drainage in heavier soils – practical for the coastal.
Long-term small rose collections
As an own-root mini rose, it builds a durable, balanced shrub that can be rejuvenated by harder pruning if needed while maintaining its shape and flowering, making it a sound investment for long-lived plantings – reassuring to the collector.
Styling ideas
Doorstep welcome – Plant one KATRINA HIT® in a 40–50 litre pot by the front door where its compact habit and orange blooms give a clean, reliable welcome – suited to design-conscious homeowners.
Cottage ribbon – Use a row along a path, underplanted with Irish moss, to create a soft orange-and-green edging that stays neat without constant trimming – ideal for informal cottage-garden lovers.
Patio trio – Group three plants in separate large containers, spacing them to frame a seating area with repeat colour and minimal care – perfect for busy urban balcony or terrace gardeners.
Colour cushion – Combine with lady’s mantle and alpine catchfly in a small mixed bed for a low, textural planting that offers continuous seasonal interest with little intervention – good for low-maintenance planners.
Mini rose bed – Create a dedicated miniature-rose patch, spacing plants at 35 cm to form a tidy block of long-flowering shrubs that are easy to prune and manage – excellent for beginner rose enthusiasts.

Detailed product attributes
Product Identification Data
Product Name:
KATRINA HIT® – orange dwarf mini rose - Olesen & Olesen
Product Type:
pharmaROSA® ORIGINAL - 2-litre own-root potted rose
Foliage:
The variety has medium-density foliage; the surface character of the leaves cannot be clearly classified and their colour is a yellowish‑green shade (RHS 144A).
Flower Colour Description:
The base colour of the petals is a vivid mid‑orange, deepened by a subtle salmon tone.
Closed Bud:
The bud's outer surface is deep orange, the inner surface lighter with a salmon sheen.
Newly Opened Flower:
The edges of the outer petals are orange‑red, while the inner petals are a lighter, warm orange shade.
Full Bloom:
The petals are uniformly vivid orange, with a subtle shading towards their base.
Before Fading:
The colour gently fades, softening to a peach‑tinged orange cream.
Colour Fading Description:
As it opens the colour unifies into a vivid orange, then before the bloom fades it softens to an orange‑cream subtly blended with peach.
Pollinator Attraction:
Very double (40+ petals) flowers attract pollinators only to a limited extent because the dense flower form and reduced accessibility of the stamens limit their appeal.
Pollinator-Friendly Rating:
Its double flowers attract pollinators only to a limited extent, so its pollinator-friendliness is low and it is primarily an ornamental cultivar.

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.
