"Origin & Breeding History: 'Poulstri' originated from a cross conducted in the spring of 1992 between an unnamed seedling and variety 'Poulskov'. The resulting seeds were planted in December of 1992 and germinated during the winter and early spring. The cross and selection took place in the greenhouses of Poulsen Roser A/S located in Fredensborg, Denmark. 'Poulstri' was selected in the spring of 1993 based on the objective of this hybridization which was to create a new and distinct rose variety for use in the garden. Selection criteria included uniform and abundant pink/red flowers streaked with white appearing on the plant evenly from the lower to upper branches, vigorous but compact and low growth when propagated both as a budded rose and on its own roots, disease resistance and climbing plant growth habit."
