Grandiflora Rose 'Crimson Bouquet': Kordes' Modern Masterpiece

Introduced in 1999 by W. Kordes & Sons, 'Crimson Bouquet' (PP12001, also known as KORbeteilich, New Generation Roses Collection) represents the cutting edge of German rose breeding—combining the flower power of a floribunda with the stem length and bloom size of a hybrid tea.

Botanical Profile

The blooms are a saturated, velvety crimson-red, high-centered when young, opening to cupped flowers 4-5 inches across, borne in clusters of 3-7 on long cutting stems. The fragrance is light and sweet. The plant is vigorous and upright, 4-5 feet tall, with exceptionally disease-resistant, dark green foliage—a hallmark of Kordes' "Parfuma" and "Rigorosa" breeding lines. 'Crimson Bouquet' was bred for the modern garden: low maintenance, high impact, and florist-quality flowers. It's a grandiflora that delivers on the class's original promise—grand flowers, abundant bouquets.
