Two-coloured roses: unique eye-catchers for every occasion

Two-tone roses and colour-changing flowers have become hugely popular in the flower industry in recent years. Thanks to their unusual colours, surprising transitions and luxurious appearance, they make the perfect gift and are a favourite in bridal work, bouquets and arrangements. Below, you can discover the most popular two-tone varieties and ways to colour roses in two colours yourself.

Paloma rose – white and pink elegance from grower Ol Njorowa

The Paloma rose is one of the most refined two-coloured roses on the market. Grown by Ol Njorowa, this cultivar is known for its elegant white base that subtly transitions into soft, powder pink edges. The petals are firm, classically shaped and open slowly, ensuring that the rose remains beautiful in a vase for a long time.

This rose is often used in romantic bouquets, luxurious bridal bouquets and stylish interior arrangements. Thanks to its soft colours, the Paloma suits almost any style – from rustic to modern and minimalist.

Coral Charm peony – an enchanting colour change

Although it is a peony, the Coral Charm peony deserves a prominent place among the range of unusual two-coloured flowers. This peony is known for its spectacular colour change:

• The flower opens in a vibrant coral pink hue,
• gradually fading to apricot,
• and eventually ending in a soft cream or ivory colour.

This natural metamorphosis makes the Coral Charm an absolute showstopper in any arrangement. It radiates warmth, luxury and dynamism, and remains fascinating to look at from bud to full bloom.

Gardenia peony – pink exterior, white interior

The Gardenia peony is beloved for its romantic colour contrasts. The outer petals have a soft, vintage pink hue, while the inner petals are bright white. This creates a subtle yet striking two-tone effect reminiscent of classic, hand-painted floral motifs.

Its layered colour scheme makes the Gardenia peony perfect for elegant bridal bouquets, luxury events and decorative arrangements where refinement is key.

And make no mistake, this peony will amaze you. It arrives fresh, which means it still looks small in its bud. But put it in water and it will “explode”. Once in bloom, it will surprise you with its delightful light fragrance!

Subtle colour gradients in modern roses

In addition to striking two-tone roses, there are also roses that are known for their subtle colour gradients. These flowers do not have harsh colour blocks, but rather a natural, almost watercolour-like transition of shades.

Sweet Revival – delicate pink to delicate green

The Sweet Revival rose starts with a delicate pink hue, and the outer petals slowly turn a fresh green. This gives the rose a natural vintage look that works beautifully in rustic and romantic arrangements.

Confidential – orange-yellow to orange-red

The Confidential rose has a warm, sunny base in orange-yellow. As it blooms, the petals turn orange-red, creating a vibrant, energetic look.

Pink X-Pression – from orange to pink

Pink X-Pression changes from a warm orange tone to a vibrant pink as the flower opens. This striking colour change makes this variety particularly popular for playful and colourful bouquets.
