'Jasmina™ Arborse® is truly one of the best newly released mannerly climbers. Black spot and mildew resistant canes are easy to train and rebloom is far superior compared to other climbing roses. Not only is it's rebloom revolutionary, but the number and clusters of fragrant pinkish flowers will leave you and visitors to your garden astonished as well. A special quality of 'Jasmina'™ is its type of fragrance, rather than having the traditional old garden "rose" scent, it perfumes the air with fresh cut pineapple instead!

This most charming aspect of 'Plum Perfect'™ is the unique color of its slightly double flowers. It is another easy to grow Kordes shrub that we keep at three feet. To create contrast in the garden, use this rose among plantings of yellow and orange.

This repeat blooming, small shrub rose is a perfect centerpiece for any landscape.  The fragrant, peachy colored blooms will grab all that pass by.  Disease resistant and cold hardiness add to 'Soul Sister's' qualities.

We are asked for brightly colored roses all the time. Now we have one we can recommend. The semi-double blooms of 'South Africa'™ are a deep golden yellow, almost cantaloupe. The blooms open to reveal the stamens which are much the same color as the petals. Plant as a specimen or in combination with 'Plum Perfect'™ for a dramatic contrast. This is a great cut flower but it is thorny.

'Westerland’ is a rose for the bold and daring gardener. It seems to demand attention with its very bright orange, semi-double, three inch flowers. It is best used as a pillar rose to ten feet or as a large specimen shrub of 5 feet by 7 feet. Qualities of disease resistance, cold hardiness and fragrance put this rose in a class of its own. This is another Kordes introduction.

This is probably the best rose in the Veranda® series; at least the brightest, hence its name, 'Brilliant™ Veranda'®. The very full flowers are intensely showy like a coral beacon. Plants are sturdy to three feet making this rose a perfect container plant or useful in a mixed planting.

Very double dark red roses of moderate fragrance as well as an upright growth habit are qualities we admire of 'Desmond Tutu'™. The Hybrid Tea-like flowers are good for cutting and the foliage is large and shiny.

'Grande Amore'™ is the best success of the Kordes breeding program's goal to once and for all breed a truly classic Hybrid Tea rose with blackspot resistance! The shade of red has an eye-popping bright look to it. Growth habit lends itself to being planted towards the back of the bed but it can still be enjoyed as the tall thick canes support luxuriously large blooms.  We find the 'Grande Amore'™ blooms last considerably longer than the average rose so it is ideal for cutting. 'Grande Amore'™ also possesses some mildew resistance, which is rare for a Hybrid Tea rose.

A recent Hybrid Musk cultivar introduced by Kordes, 'Lavender Lassie' is not exactly purple but it does lean to the lilac side of pink. The flowers, produced in large trusses, are showy, semi-double, and very fragrant. This vigorous rose could be clipped into an informal bush or hedge, but we like it best as a thickly-foliaged climber. If grown as a climber, this rose will reach 10 to 12 feet.
