CORAIL GELÉE – coral-pink nostalgia rose – Kawamoto
With its glowing coral-pink blooms and romantic, cup-shaped flowers, CORAIL GELÉE brings a softly nostalgic ambience to Irish gardens, echoing cottage borders and welcoming front paths. As a shrub rose with upright growth and dense, glossy foliage, it forms a graceful, flowering structure that works beautifully as a specimen, light screen or in a mixed border. The large, double flowers appear in generous flushes, giving a long season of colour, with an abundant second flowering that keeps the display going well into late summer. A gentle, fresh, fruity fragrance adds refinement without overwhelming smaller spaces. Grown on its own roots, this rose is designed for a long garden life, building a strong, well-branched bush that can regenerate from the base and maintain its ornamental value over many years. It is supplied in a handy 2‑litre container so You can plant it where You want the impact straight away, whether into a bed, border or a large patio pot. Year by year it settles in – think roots in year one, stronger shoots in year two, and full ornamental presence by year three – gradually weaving itself into your planting scheme. Once established, its good heat tolerance and measured water use make it a sensible choice where summers feel warmer and You want a water-wise rose that still looks generous and lush, even in exposed, breezy sites softened by Atlantic winds and regular showers.

Use cases
Target area
Reason
Front garden focal shrub
The upright, 140–210 cm habit and dense, glossy foliage create an immediate presence beside a door, gate or bay window, giving height and romance without needing complex training, ideal for a welcoming look for busy beginners
Romantic cottage-style border
Large, nostalgic, cup-shaped blooms in warm coral-pink shades blend beautifully with perennials, soft grasses and pastel planting, creating a relaxed country feel that suits informal Irish cottage gardens for lovers of charm
Specimen rose in lawn or gravel
Planted alone with 200 cm spacing, the strong shrub silhouette and repeat flowering draw the eye from spring to autumn, giving a single, easy-to-manage highlight rather than a complicated rose scheme for low-maintenance gardeners

A trio spaced at about 120 cm quickly reads as a coherent, full-looking group, ensuring plenty of coral blooms and structure while keeping pruning and care simple for time-pressed homeowners
Training on a light pergola or arbour
The tall, upright canes can be loosely tied to supports, giving a soft, arching veil of coral flowers over paths or seating, without the rigid routine of a true climber, practical for creative improvers
Screening along a fence
Planted at around 110 cm intervals, the dense foliage and height help soften boundaries and provide a gently flowering screen, adding privacy and colour without needing a formal hedge for family back gardens

Technical cultivar profile
Parameter
Data
Name and registration
Trade name CORAIL GELÉE – Romantic rose – Kawamoto; shrub nostalgia rose in the Romantic rose collection; registered in 2011 in the Japanese cultivar register, with no separate ARS exhibition name.
Origin and breeding
Bred by Kawamoto Junko at Kawamoto Rose Garden, Japan. Parentage is unknown. Introduced and first distributed in 2011, primarily through Kawamoto Rose Garden, then selected for wider garden use.
Growth and structure
Vigorous shrub rose with upright habit, 140–210 cm high and 100–150 cm wide. Forms dense, well-leaved bushes with glossy dark green foliage and moderate prickliness, giving good visual cover and structure.
Flower morphology
Large, double, cup-shaped blooms with 26–39 petals, typically carried in corymbose clusters. Remontant with an abundant second flush after the main flowering, extending the ornamental season across summer.
Colour and phenology
Warm coral-pink with delicate orange highlights; buds vivid coral, opening to medium full coral-pink with a slightly darker centre. Colour holds moderately, softening slightly in heat and staying richer in cooler spells.
Fragrance and aroma
Mild, fresh, fruity scent that is noticeable at close range without dominating nearby seating areas. Primarily grown for its nostalgic flower form and colour rather than for strong perfume-driven plantings.
Rose hip characteristics
Rose hips set sparsely due to full, double flowers. When present, hips are spherical, 10–15 mm across, orange-red and decorative in a modest way, offering a subtle late-season accent rather than a heavy crop.
Resistance and hardiness
Hardy to around −21 to −18 °C (H7, USDA 6b, Swedish zone 3). Heat tolerant with irrigation in prolonged drought. Disease resistance is modest, needing regular protection against powdery mildew and rust, and some black spot.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in sunny, airy sites with fertile, well-drained soil. Space 120 cm for beds, 110 cm for hedging, 200 cm as specimen. Use a minimum 40–50 litre container for tubs. Requires attentive plant protection and feeding for best results.
CORAIL GELÉE offers tall, romantic coral-pink blooms, a strong shrub presence and repeat flowering, while its own-root form supports long-term, resilient growth; consider it if You want a characterful rose that settles in for years.
Detailed product attributes
Product Identification Data
Product Name:
CORAIL GELÉE – coral-pink nostalgia rose - Kawamoto
Product Type:
pharmaROSA® ORIGINAL - 2-litre own-root potted rose
Pollinator Attraction:
The cultivar’s heavily double (full) blooms, in which stamens are obscured and less accessible, attract pollinators poorly because the flower form and reduced stamen accessibility limit access to nectar and pollen.
Pollinator-Friendly Rating:
Its double flowers partially conceal the stamens, so its pollinator-friendliness is limited and it is primarily an ornamental variety.
Maintenance Requirements:
Maintenance requirement high; due to its poor disease resistance it requires regular plant protection and increased attention.
Key Uses:
flower bed, park, specimen, pergola, arbour, fence

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.
