Create beautiful flowerbeds and magnificent scented bouquets with its roses.

The Kazatchok® Rose (Oragrapar) was recently introduced to the market by the Orard rose gardens, a family business located in Feyzin, not far from Lyon. It is classified as a modern hybrid tea rose, as evidenced by the turbinate shape of its flowers. This variety received the Silver Medal in Rome in 2020. It was named Kazatchok, after a traditional dance originating from Ukraine practiced for a long time by the Cossacks.

It is a perpetual blooming rose, which flowers from June to October in successive waves. The plant forms a slightly upright, bushy shrub with vigorous and rapid growth. It will reach an average height of 1.05m (3ft) with a spread of 50-60cm (20-24in). The flowers are globular and turbinate, well-shaped and composed of 80 petals in a powerful rose colour, called Oriental rose. Their fragrance is pronounced, especially in hot weather. It is described by its creator as a "fruity rose with lychee and honey notes". The foliage, a fairly dark and non-glossy green, is highly resistant to diseases and perfectly enhances the color of the roses. Deciduous, it falls in autumn and regrows in spring.

This Kazatchok rose, with its fragrance, the brilliance of its large flowers, and its abundant flowering, will find its place in the garden in a large rose flowerbed or as a standalone plant in a well-maintained garden. It adapts to all soils that are not too dry and all climates, tolerating both cold and heat, which allows it to be grown without reservation from north to south of our country, even at medium altitudes. It pairs perfectly with white, purple, mauve, and red roses, as well as with pretty and easy-to-grow plants like perennial geraniums (Geranium 'Blue Cloud', 'Anne Folkard', 'Nimbus', 'Orion'), campanulas (lactiflora, rapunculoides), catmints, cornflowers, foxgloves, phlox... Its flowers can be used to create elegant bouquets that delicately perfume the house.
