BAJAZZO® – pink climbing rose – Kordes

If You would like a colourful, easy-going climber that looks at home in an Irish garden without demanding complicated care, Bajazzo® is a vivid choice. Its open, single blooms in glowing shades of pink and silvery rose appear in generous clusters, lighting up pergolas, house walls and sturdy arches for months on end. This large-flowered climber repeats well, giving a strong second flush so Your garden never feels bare in mid-summer. The simple, open-centred flowers are genuinely pollinator-friendly, drawing bees and other beneficial insects, while the dark, glossy foliage creates an attractive backdrop even between flushes. Bajazzo® grows on its own roots, building a stable, long-lived framework that regenerates well after pruning or weather damage and gradually requires less upkeep. In the first year it concentrates on roots, in the second on strong shoots, and by the third it reaches full ornamental value, settling comfortably even where summers are damp and breezy with frequent fungal pressure. All in all, You plant it once and enjoy a lively, romantic presence for many seasons.

Use cases

Target area Reason
Front-garden pergola near the entrance Bajazzo® quickly clothes a modest pergola with arching stems hung with large, vivid pink clusters, giving a cheerful welcome at the gate or front door for visitors and household alike, especially appealing to busy homeowners
South- or west-facing house wall Its strong climbing habit and dark, glossy foliage make an excellent vertical screen along sunny walls, softening brick or render and providing long-season colour while coping well with damp, breeze and typical Irish fungal pressure for urban gardeners
Romantic cottage-garden arch The open, single, pink blooms and graceful clusters suit informal cottage styles, especially when combined with perennials beneath an arch, turning a simple path into a romantic focal point that delights cottage-garden lovers
Pillar or obelisk in a mixed border Trained around a sturdy pillar, Bajazzo® adds vertical accent inside mixed plantings without dominating, its repeat-flowering clusters weaving through shrubs and perennials to give height and structure valued by small-garden owners
Pollinator-friendly family play area edge The open-centred flowers with exposed stamens provide easy nectar access, bringing bees and other beneficial insects close enough for children to observe nature safely at the border edge, encouraging nature-curious families
Low-maintenance rose group of 3–5 plants Planted as a small group on a fence line, the own-root plants gradually knit into a long-lived, regenerating thicket of colour that tolerates straightforward pruning and basic feeding, ideal for beginner gardeners
Statement feature in a rural boundary hedge Threaded through a post-and-rail or wire boundary, its dense, thorny growth and strong flowering create a lively, bird- and insect-friendly strip that also adds privacy and seasonal hips, suiting country homeowners
Large container against a sunny courtyard wall In a 40–50 litre container with good drainage, Bajazzo® can be trained up a trellis to give vertical colour where soil is limited, rewarding regular watering and feeding with generous flowering that pleases patio gardeners

Decorating ideas

  • Cottage Arch Glow – Train Bajazzo® over a metal arch with lavender and catmint at the base for a soft pink-and-blue entrance to a cottage-style garden – perfect for romantic rural garden enthusiasts
  • Front Door Welcome – Clothe a slim pergola by the front path with Bajazzo® and underplant with white geraniums for a bright, tidy welcome that stays attractive for months – ideal for busy homeowners
  • Mixed Border Accent – Let Bajazzo® climb an obelisk among hydrangeas and hardy geraniums, giving height and vivid colour without overcrowding nearby shrubs – suited to small suburban gardens
  • Wildlife Corner – Combine Bajazzo® on a fence with bluebeard shrub and dwarf deutzia to create a pollinator-friendly, layered screen that buzzes with life – great for families who enjoy nature watching
  • Courtyard Screen – Grow Bajazzo® in a large container against a sunny wall, paired with potted rosemary and grasses for a Mediterranean feel in compact spaces – ideal for urban patio and balcony owners

Information about the videos
The video series is not a “seasonal showcase”, but makes the essence of pharmaROSA® own-root production tangible: how the plant is built, what the root system is like and how the shoots renew themselves. The footage was therefore taken at different times, showing plants at different stages of development, so mixed leaf coverage or differing growth stages may appear in the videos. This is not a “sample” of the batch delivered, but an illustration of how the technology works. The current condition of the rose available to order — typical of the given period and similar to what you can expect to receive in the parcel — is shown at the top of the product page.
