Rosa Wedding Bells

Rosa Wedding Bells is a modern variety. It is classic and remarkably chic. It has exceptional health for a hybrid tea rose. Its large turbinate roses are perfectly formed, retaining multiple petals in a rare colour of pink with silver reflections. Its floral scent is classic and pleasant. It flowers generously from May to October, on long and sturdy stems adorned with equally elegant, dark green and satin foliage. Its flowers are sublime in bouquets.

Modern roses are often criticised for being stiff and susceptible to diseases. Rosa Wedding Bells, however, stands out with its good disease resistance, vigour, and the perfection of its delicately scented large roses. This modern hybrid tea rose from the ELEGANZA series was registered in 2010 by the German rose breeder Kordes, who specialises in naturally healthy varieties, without the need for phytosanitary treatments. It forms a small bushy and upright shrub. It has a rapid growth rate. It will reach a height of about 75cm (30in) with a spread of 50 to 60cm (20 to 24in). From May-June to September-October, it produces beautiful modern roses with a turbinate shape, measuring 10 to 12cm (4 to 5in) wide. The solitary blooms are carried by long, sturdy, and thorny stems. The petals have a pure pink colour, delicately touched with silver reflections. Their scent is fresh and floral when blooming, revealing bitter and earthy notes of myrtle, incense, and patchouli in the heat of the day, especially at noon and in the evening.

With its vigour, perfect roses, sophisticated style, and exceptional colour, Rosa Wedding Bells is undeniably a beautiful variety for cut flowers. It will easily find its place in the garden in a large rose bed, in combination with red roses like Eric Tabarly and Cherry Lady, white roses like Fée des Neiges, or mauve roses like Blue Girl. It works well in a mixed hedge, or even as a standalone plant in a well-maintained garden. It adapts well to all climates and to all soils that are not too dry. It pairs perfectly with pretty and easy-to-grow perennials such as geraniums, bellflowers, foxgloves, or even grasses in a very innovative style.
