Bentheimer Gold® – orange bedding floribunda rose – Kordes
If You would like a rose that brings warmth and cheer to a small Irish garden without complicated routines, Bentheimer Gold® is bred to give You flower-filled bedding displays with a reliable, bushy shape and compact height that suit front gardens and narrow borders. Its clusters of very double, cupped blooms glow in shades of orange and peach-yellow, creating cottage-style charm from early summer well into autumn. Planted in a sunny, well-drained spot that copes with our typically wet conditions, this own-root plant settles in steadily and keeps a consistent ornamental presence for many years. The medium-height, upright growth works neatly along paths, around patios or in groups of 3–5 to form a rounded, colourful bed without the need for elaborate design. In a large 40–50 litre container it can brighten a coastal doorstep or balcony just as well as a suburban lawn edge. Over time it follows a natural rhythm – in year one it concentrates on roots, in year two it builds stronger shoots, and by year three it reaches its full, glowing ornamental value in Your garden.

Reason

Clustered, repeat-flowering heads ensure a bright display through the main season, so a simple, rectangular rose bed quickly looks full and satisfying without complex planting plans for homeowners
Small group planting of 3–5 roses

Low, colourful hedge along a path or drive
Regular spacing allows the dense foliage and branching to knit together into a low hedge line that guides visitors and frames drives or paths, while remaining easier to manage than formal clipping for small-gardens
Long-term planting for a stable garden framework
As an own-root rose it gradually forms its mature shape in place and can regenerate from the base if cut back, giving a durable backbone planting that settles into the garden picture over many seasons for long-term-planners

Technical cultivar profile
Parameter
Data
Name and registration
Floribunda bed rose from the RigoRosen® collection; registered as KORbentgol, marketed as Bentheimer Gold® RigoRosen® KORbentgol; shrub rose type for ornamental bedding and exhibition.
Origin and breeding
Bred by Tim-Hermann Kordes, W. Kordes’ Söhne, Germany, from an unknown Kordes seedling × ‘Gebrüder Grimm’; bred 2001, introduced and registered in 2015 by W. Kordes’ Söhne.
Awards and recognitions
ADR General German Rose Trials 2015; Gold Medal La Tacita International Rose Competition 2016; Bronze Medal Baden-Baden 2016; Certificate of Merit Bagatelle (Paris) 2017.
Growth and structure
Medium-height, bushy, upright shrub rose reaching about 55–80 cm high and 60–85 cm wide; dense, dark green, slightly glossy foliage with moderate prickles, good for defined bedding lines.
Flower morphology
Very double, cupped flowers with over 40 petals, produced mainly in clusters; medium-sized blooms around 4–7 cm across, remontant with notably abundant second flush on well-grown plants.
Colour and phenology
Vibrant orange flowers with peach undertones; buds medium orange, opening warm yellowish-peach inside, then gradually fading toward soft apricot-yellow, especially in strong sun; colour holds better in cooler weather.
Fragrance and aroma
Medium-strength, sweet fruity scent that is clearly noticeable on warm, still days; mainly grown as an ornamental bedding rose, but fragrance adds extra appeal near paths and seating areas.
Rose hip characteristics
Due to very full, double blooms, hip formation is rare and slight; where present, hips are tiny, about 0–5 mm diameter, with no significant ornamental or wildlife value expected.
Resistance and hardiness
Winter hardy to about -21 to -18 °C (RHS H7, roughly USDA 6b, Swedish zone 3); disease resistance low, very sensitive to black spot and powdery mildew, rust medium, so regular protection is required.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in sunny, well-drained beds or large containers; spacing 40–75 cm depending on use; planting density around 4–4.6 plants/m²; respond with timely feeding, watering and disease control for reliable bedding display.
Bentheimer Gold® offers compact, colourful bedding impact, a reliable own-root framework and attractive fruity fragrance, making it a good choice if You want a long-lived rose that will settle into Your garden with steady care.
Cultivar Name Meaning:
The name "Bentheimer Gold" refers to the characteristic golden‑brown sandstone of the Grafschaft Bentheim region and pays tribute to the work of Bentheim’s quarrymen.
Competition and Show Awards:
La Tacita International Rose Competition – Gold Medal (groundcover category, 2016); Baden‑Baden International Rose Competition – Bronze Medal (2016); Bagatelle (Paris) – Certificate of Merit (2017)
Flower Colour:
Vibrant orange with a delicate peach undertone.
Closed Bud:
Outside a medium-intense orange, inside a slightly lighter peach-coloured shade.
Freshly Opened Flower:
The outer petals are bright orange, while the inner surfaces are a warm yellowish-peach.
Full Bloom:
The petals are a uniform warm orange with a slightly golden tone in the centre.
Pre-Fading Flower:
The colour fades, softening to a gentle peach yellow.
Colour Fading Description:
During opening the bright orange gradually fades to a soft apricot-yellow; this is more pronounced in strong sunlight, while in cooler weather the colour is better retained.
Pollinator Attraction:
Because of the flower structure — whether simple, semi‑double or double — and reduced accessibility of the stamens, this variety is likely to be of low attractiveness to pollinators.
Pollinator-Friendly Rating:
Like heavily double‑flowered varieties, mainly ornamental rather than specifically pollinator‑friendly
Rose Hip Notes:
Because of its very full (double) flowers, rose‑hip formation is expected to be slight and occasional; the hips are 0–5 mm in diameter.
Maintenance Requirements:
Maintenance requirement high; low disease resistance—particularly susceptible to powdery mildew and black spot—so regular plant protection is necessary.

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.
