Rosa Damascena Trigintipetala

Full description:

Few roses have shaped history quite like the Damascus Rose. For centuries, its fragrance has travelled from monastery gardens to royal courts, from perfume ateliers to family kitchens, becoming one of the world's most treasured botanical gifts. Rosa Damascena Trigintipetala continues that remarkable legacy, offering not only exceptional beauty but the opportunity to cultivate a tradition that has been passed from one generation to the next.

This is the famous Damascus Rose grown in renowned regions such as Kazanlak in Bulgaria, Kashan in Iran and Isparta in Turkey, where its flowers are harvested at dawn to preserve their precious aromatic compounds. Rosa Damascena Trigintipetala is especially valued because it produces approximately 30% more essential oil than other roses within the Damascus family, making it one of the preferred varieties for premium rose oil and rose water production.

Every flowering season rewards you with intensely fragrant blooms whose petals can be transformed into traditional rose jam, fragrant syrups, herbal teas, dried petals, desserts and homemade cosmetics. Growing this rose means that the harvest continues long after the flowers have faded, allowing the garden to become a source of both beauty and wellbeing.

Beyond its practical value, Rosa Damascena Trigintipetala remains an elegant garden shrub whose highly scented flowers attract admiration from everyone who passes by. It is equally at home in cottage gardens, heritage collections and dedicated plantations, where its extraordinary fragrance becomes the defining memory of early summer.

Whether you dream of preparing authentic rose preserves, crafting your own rose water or simply preserving one of the world's great horticultural traditions, Rosa Damascena Trigintipetala offers something few plants can: beauty that can be seen, experienced and shared long after the flowering season has ended.
