Floribunda Shrub Rose 'Heaven on Earth': Kordes' Divine Carpet

Introduced in 2003 by W. Kordes & Sons, 'Heaven on Earth' (PP15253, also known as KORraveli, Avril Elizabeth Home) is a floribunda/shrub that creates a celestial carpet of soft pink blooms. Part of Kordes' Parfuma® line, it combines fragrance, disease resistance, and ground-covering habit in a package that lives up to its heavenly name.

Botanical Profile

The flowers are double, cupped, a soft clear pink with a gentle fragrance—light, sweet, and floral. They appear in large clusters on a low, spreading plant 2-3 feet tall, 4-5 feet wide. The foliage is exceptionally clean, dark green, and highly disease-resistant—Kordes' hallmark. 'Heaven on Earth' was bred for mass planting in public spaces, where it delivers months of bloom with minimal maintenance. In the home garden, it's a front-of-border angel: low, wide, fragrant, and floriferous. A little patch of paradise, no wings required.
