The parentage of this one is rather confusing:
The present invention constitutes a new and distinct variety of garden rose plant which originated from a controlled crossing between an unnamed seedling and an unnamed seedling. The two parents were crossed in the summer of 1989 and the resulting seeds were planted in a controlled environment. The new variety is named `POULbella`.
The new rose may be distinguished from its seed parent, an unnamed seedling, by the following combination of characteristics:
The unnamed seedling is a tall growing floribunda with bright pink, semi-double flowers. The unnamed seedling is an offspring of EGESKOV, a light pink floribunda and Dolly, a dark pink floribunda.
The new variety may be distinguished from its pollen parent, an unnamed seedling created by the same inventors, by the following combination of characteristics:
The pollen parent is a pink floribunda with double flowers and a low and compact habit. One of the parents of the seedling is Bella Rosa, a medium pink floribunda.

So, we know its either:
[(Egeskov x Dolly) x (Bella Rosa x Unknown)]
or
[(Egeskov x Dolly) x ( Unknown x Bella Rosa)]

We will assume the first alternative as the probable version (an unplanned hip on Bella Rosa). Thank you for your thoughts.

Does this rose make a good hedge? Is it bushy to the ground, i.e. mounded? How tall? Heat and humidity tolerant? Does it not perform like other floribundas, i.e. bloom continuously through the summer? Where can one purchase this in the U.S.A.?
