The selection of the Inner Wheel Forever® rose
The Inner Wheel Forever® garden rose is the result of a long breeding process from Danish Rose Breeder Rosa
Eskelund.
With a brush, Rosa Eskelund cross-pollinates the roses, just like a bee in the nature.
The Inner Wheel Forever® garden rose has been selected from more than 1000 new garden roses that has been
tested on open land in Denmark and Holland during the past 4 years.
It is produced both in Denmark, Australia and Japan, and in near future it will be produced in even more countries
around the world.
With her passion for roses, Rosa has created many great successes, both Roses Forever® and Infinity® mini roses,
Plant’n’Relax® garden roses and Viking® cut roses. Learn more about the roses on www.roses-forever.com

• Roses like sunshine, space around them and good soil.
