BELLEVUE ® – crimson-red hybrid tea rose – Kordes

This crimson hybrid tea brings a touch of classic elegance to family gardens, combining upright structure with full, exhibition-quality blooms and reliable reblooming right through the season. Its deep, velvety flowers are ideal for cutting, holding their colour superbly even in sun, while the medium, fruity fragrance adds a refined note along paths and near seating areas. Bred for good disease resistance, it suits busy gardeners and performs well even where breezy, moisture-laden weather calls for careful planting and drainage. As an own-root plant, it is selected for long-term durability in small beds and borders, settling in quickly and building a stable, well-shaped bush over the years.


Dense, glossy dark green foliage of Bellevue ®.

Usage options

Target area Reasoning
Front garden focal point by the path The upright hybrid tea form and dense, glossy foliage create a neat, vertical accent that fits beautifully beside a front path or gate. Large, high-centred blooms present cleanly above the leaves, giving a “proper rose” look without needing complex pruning – a reassuring choice for the style-conscious, time-poor beginner.
Small mixed border with perennials The well-branched, medium-sized bush fits easily into modest borders, threading crimson-red flowers through cottage-style companions without overwhelming them. Reliable reblooming keeps colour returning among perennials and grasses, so a small space stays interesting for months with just basic deadheading – ideal for the busy, design-minded homeowner.
Cutting corner for home arrangements Long, straight stems and high-centred, very double flowers make this variety excellent for vases, with each bloom opening slowly and cleanly. Strong colour retention means stems cut in bud develop rich, velvety tones indoors, giving you repeat harvests of classic exhibition-style roses from a compact planting – perfect for the creative, flower-loving gardener.
Container on terrace or patio (40–50 L+) In a large pot from about 40–50 litres, its upright habit and well-furnished foliage create a smart container specimen that dresses a terrace or townhouse courtyard. Medium, fruity fragrance and deep colour show well at close quarters, while the low general maintenance suits those who mainly water and feed – a practical choice for the urban balcony and patio owner.
Formal pair flanking steps or entrance Planted as a mirrored pair, the regular growth and repeat flowering reinforce a formal, orderly look without constant shaping cuts. Glossy, dark leaves set off the rich crimson flowers, and consistent performance over years allows a long-lived entrance feature that simply needs seasonal care – well suited to the traditional front-garden enthusiast.
Low-maintenance focal rose in family lawn bed Good overall disease resistance and straightforward care make this a sound choice for a single feature rose in a lawn bed, where access is easy but time is limited. With balanced feeding and moisture, it settles in and thickens up year after year, giving a stable, resilient bush that copes well with ordinary family use – reassuring for the practical, low-effort gardener.
Cottage-style border with warm-toned companions The deep wine-red tone combines beautifully with soft pinks, creams and warm golds, echoing classic cottage schemes while adding a lush, velvety accent. Because the blooms hold their colour instead of bleaching, the border reads consistently rich from first opening to petal fall – appealing to the colour-conscious cottage-border planner.
Small group planting for continuous colour Planted in a group of three to five at the recommended spacing, the upright bushes knit into a low, flowering mass that delivers a near-continuous show across the season, even in sites with damp, wind-exposed weather where good preparation and drainage are important. Repeating waves of bloom build impact over successive years, rewarding patience as the roots establish and top growth expands – an excellent option for the patient, long-view garden owner.

Styling ideas

  • Classic Entrance Duo – plant a pair either side of front steps with clipped box or low evergreen edging to frame the crimson blooms – for lovers of traditional, orderly front gardens.
  • Cottage Harmony – weave Bellevue among soft pink roses, catmint and hardy geraniums to create a layered, romantic border that flowers steadily through summer – for cottage-style enthusiasts.
  • Cutting Patch Jewel – devote a sunny corner bed to a small group of plants, underplanted with low herbs, to provide armfuls of long-stemmed blooms – for home florists and creative arrangers.
  • Patio Statement Pot – position one plant in a 50-litre terracotta container with trailing thyme or lobelia at the base for a smart, fragrant terrace focus – for balcony and patio gardeners.
  • Warm-Toned Mix – combine with golden rudbeckias, Japanese spirea and airy calamint to echo late-summer borders while keeping a structured, easy-care backbone – for colour-focused, busy homeowners.

Information about the videos
The video series is not a “seasonal showcase”; it illustrates the essence of pharmaROSA® own-root cultivation in a tangible way: how the plant is built up, what the root system is like and how the shoot system regenerates. The recordings were therefore made at different times and with plants at various stages of development, so mixed foliage levels and differing stages of growth may appear in the videos. They are not a ‘sample’ of the batch dispatched, but a visual explanation of how the technology works. The current condition of the rose available to order — typical for the given period and similar to what you can expect to receive in the parcel — is shown in the upper part of the product page.
