GEBRÜDER GRIMM® – orange bedding floribunda rose – Kordes
With its fairy-tale clusters of orange and golden blooms, GEBRÜDER GRIMM® brings a sense of storybook romance to even the smallest family garden, settling in reliably despite occasional coastal breezes and unsettled weather. This compact, upright shrub forms a dense, glossy green backdrop for its repeat-flowering clusters, creating a cosy setting for afternoon tea beside a cottage-style border or kitchen garden path. As an own-root plant, it offers reassuring longevity and the ability to regenerate from its base, so its rounded habit and colourful display remain stable over many seasons with minimal intervention. In its first years the plant steadily builds roots, then stronger shoots, before showing its full ornamental potential, rewarding patient gardeners with rich, long-lasting colour and reliable performance in beds, low hedges, and generous containers.

Reasoning
Front-of-border floribunda bed in a family garden
Compact height and upright form allow generous flower trusses without overwhelming nearby plants, while medium maintenance needs keep care realistic for busy weeks. Uniform, rounded growth makes planning easy for cottage-style beds seeking beginners.
Season-long colour beside a terrace or seating area
Remontant flowering with abundant second flush keeps warm orange and golden tones appearing through summer, supporting that “afternoon tea” feeling without complex pruning. Moderate fragrance adds a gentle note appreciated by homeowners.
Informal low hedge along paths or vegetable plots
Dense, glossy foliage and consistent growth habit create a neat, low boundary that frames kitchen gardens or paths, yet still feels soft and romantic. Recommended planting distances make it straightforward to design for planners.
Feature rose in large containers (40–60 litres)
Its upright, bushy structure and moderate spread suit large pots on patios or balconies, where own-root resilience helps the plant recover from occasional dryness or missed feeds. Container use is practical for urbanites.
Mixed cottage border with perennials and herbs
Clustered, medium-sized rosette blooms in sunset colours blend beautifully with catmint, blanket flowers and other cottage favourites, giving a relaxed, “girly” countryside mood. This suits romantically inclined collectors.
Family gardens in cooler or exposed parts of the UK
High winter hardiness and good heat tolerance mean it copes with frosty winters, warm spells and brisk winds, staying reliable from year to year. This weather resilience reassures cautious families.
Roses for sites with occasional rain and wind exposure
ADR recognition and solid all-round garden performance help it maintain foliage and flower display even where frequent showers and breezes occur, remaining presentable for most of the season and suiting quality-minded owners.
Long-term planting where low replacement is desired
The own-root form supports long life and recovery from damage, while a gradual build-up of strength over the first few seasons leads to a stable, mature shrub that rarely needs replacing, ideal for time-pressed gardeners.
Styling ideas
Fairy‑tale edging – line a path with low GEBRÜDER GRIMM® bushes interplanted with lavender or catmint to echo cottage-story illustrations – for romantically minded family gardeners
Sunset focal pot – plant a single shrub in a 50–60 litre terracotta container with trailing thyme around the rim – for balcony and patio rose enthusiasts
Kitchen‑garden frame – create a soft hedge around vegetable beds, combining its warm blooms with calendula and chives – for home growers who like traditional potagers
Cosy seating nook – group three plants near a bench, backed by dark green shrubs to highlight the orange and gold clusters – for those designing small, intimate corners
Perennial tapestry – weave plants through borders of gaillardia, obedient plant and ornamental grasses for long, shifting colour – for gardeners who enjoy mixed, naturalistic schemes

Characteristic
Data

GEBRÜDER GRIMM® MärchenRosen®, floribunda bed rose; registered as KORassenet, exhibition name Gebrüder Grimm, part of the MärchenRosen® fairy-tale themed collection.
Origin and breeding
Bred by Wilhelm Kordes III, W. Kordes’ Söhne, Germany; ‘Bernsteinrose’ × (unknown seedling × ‘Immensee’); bred 2000, introduced and registered in 2001 in Germany.
Awards and recognition
Highly decorated garden rose: ADR award 2002, BUGA Potsdam gold medal 2001, Kortrijk silver medal 2001, RNRS Trial Ground Certificate 2000, Rome bronze 2002, TOPROOS Netherlands 2006.
Growth and structural characteristics
Compact upright shrub, around 85–115 cm tall and 40–60 cm wide; dense, glossy dark green foliage, moderately thorny shoots, forming a uniform, bushy plant ideal for beds and low hedging.
Flower morphology
Medium-sized, very double rosette blooms with 40+ petals; carried in clusters on branching stems; remontant with abundant second flush; moderate self-cleaning so occasional deadheading improves display.
Colour data and phenology
Fiery orange-red outer petals and golden-yellow centres, maturing to pinkish-orange and then softer pink; colour lightens faster in strong sun, yet overall effect remains warm and vivid throughout the season.
Fragrance and aroma
Mild, restrained scent with a slightly sweet, fruity character; primarily grown for its colour and flower form rather than perfume, suitable where strong fragrance is not essential or could be overwhelming.
Hip characteristics
Sparse hip set due to very double flowers; occasional small spherical orange-red hips 6–10 mm across may appear, adding discreet autumn interest without dominating the plant’s ornamental value.
Resistance and winter hardiness
Hardy to around −32 to −29 °C (RHS H7, Swedish Zon 5, USDA 4b); good heat tolerance with watering in drought; moderate resistance to powdery mildew and black spot, resistant to rust in typical garden conditions.
Horticultural recommendations
Suited to beds, low hedges, specimens and containers; plant 35–70 cm apart depending on use; square spacing about 4.9 plants/m², hexagonal 5.7 plants/m²; medium maintenance with occasional plant protection if needed.
GEBRÜDER GRIMM® offers compact, uniform growth, richly coloured repeat blooms and the long-lived security of an own-root plant, making it a cultured, dependable choice for relaxed cottage-style gardens and patios you may wish to enjoy for years.
Competition and Show Awards:
BUGA Potsdam gold medal (2001); Kortrijk silver medal (2001); RNRS Trial Ground Certificate, United Kingdom (2000); Rome bronze medal (2002); TOPROOS award, Netherlands (2006)
Pollinator Attraction:
Its semi‑double to fully double flower form and reduced accessibility of the stamens make it unattractive to pollinating insects.
Pollinator-Friendly Rating:
Its double flowers conceal the stamens, making it primarily an ornamental variety.
Hip Comment:
Rose hip formation is expected to be sparse due to the double flowers, occasionally producing spherical, orange-red hips 6–10 mm in diameter.

Information about the videos
The video series is not a “seasonal showcase”; it illustrates the essence of pharmaROSA® own-root cultivation in a tangible way: how the plant is built up, what the root system is like and how the shoot system regenerates. The recordings were therefore made at different times and with plants at various stages of development, so mixed foliage levels and differing stages of growth may appear in the videos. They are not a ‘sample’ of the batch dispatched, but a visual explanation of how the technology works. The current condition of the rose available to order — typical for the given period and similar to what you can expect to receive in the parcel — is shown in the upper part of the product page.
