Hey there! Let's talk about a unique twist to the usual rose business. A Russian rose breeder, Roman Usinin, decided to shake things up a bit by naming a brand-new variety after a famous mountain resort - Rosa Khutor. Sounds intriguing, right?

It all began when Andrei Tumanoff, a TV host, chairman of "Gardeners of Russia," and the founder of the newspaper "Your 6 Sots," suggested the idea. The idea caught the attention of Mister Usinin, who agreed to the proposal with an easy "why not?" After all, breeding roses is a lengthy, laborious process, and it took this talented rose breeder two long years to finally settle on the perfect selection.

The Rosa Khutor resort may not originally be known for flowers, but in another spin of destiny, it's now home to roses. Thanks to the mountain's rocky soil and careful attention from the resort's agronomists, the new variety is thriving in its new environment. This soil, unlike many others, doesn't hold water, allowing the roots to breathe easily. Add compost, mineral fertilizers, and a pinch of love, and voila! You've got a recipe for healthy roses.

So what makes this new variety stand out? The Rosa Khutor Resort variety boasts tall stems, large and vibrant buds that can grow up to 12 cm in diameter, and a hint of a delicate fragrance. But the cherry on top is its outstanding winter hardiness, making it capable of enduring snowy winters and temperatures down to -15°C.

By all accounts, the new Rosa Khutor rose garden is going to be a fan-favorite spot for years to come, drawing in visitors and providing prime photo opportunities for resort guests.

The new variety "Rosa Khutor Resort" has already found a spot in the main Russian public catalog, RoseCatalog (https://rosecatalog.ru/) and will soon be making an appearance on another – Rosebook (https://www.rosebook.ru/).

If you're interested in exploring more about Rosa Khutor Resort, keep an eye out for its upcoming entries on these horticultural databases. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, it might be worth reaching out to botanical gardens, rose societies, or breeders with a penchant for the unconventional.
