HANSALAND – red park rose - Kordes
Vigorous and naturally upright, HANSALAND creates an immediate sense of structure in family gardens, building a dense, leafy screen with glossy dark green foliage that looks healthy even in exposed spots. Its semi-double, self-cleaning clusters keep borders orderly, as most spent blooms drop away on their own, helping you enjoy a vivid, pure red display without constant deadheading. The colour holds extremely reliably through sun and heat, with only slight fading, so your planting remains striking through typical British summers and blustery coastal winds where good anchoring and stability in the soil really matter. Heat- and cold-tolerant, this robust shrub settles steadily from root growth in the first year to fuller top growth in the second and confident ornamental presence by the third season, forming a long-lived, own-root hedge, backdrop or specimen that fits effortlessly around your home.

Reasoning
Front-garden hedge along a boundary or path
The tall, upright habit and dense foliage make HANSALAND ideal for a living boundary, offering privacy and structure without complex clipping. Once established, the self-supporting framework stays tidy with one main prune a year, suiting busy homeowners.
Feature shrub by the drive or entrance
The vivid, stable red colour stands out against brickwork and paving, giving a bold welcome at the front of the house. Because the blooms hold their colour well in full sun, you can rely on a consistent look from week to week, appealing to colour-conscious beginners.
Mixed cottage-style border with perennials
The strong vertical shape and dark foliage act as a backbone in looser cottage plantings, weaving well with herbaceous perennials. Its repeat flowering ensures splashes of red through the season, supporting a classic cottage effect that pleases style-focused gardeners.
Low-maintenance shrub bed in a family garden
Good heat and moderate drought tolerance mean HANSALAND copes better when watering is not perfectly regular, especially in freer-draining or sunny spots. This resilience, combined with its own-root stamina, offers reassurance to time-poor families.
Informal flowering screen near seating areas
The semi-double clusters give a long sequence of red blooms, while the naturally bushy growth provides a gentle visual barrier without feeling heavy. Little fragrance keeps it unobtrusive around seating, an advantage for scent-sensitive users.
Small group planting (3–5 plants) in a bed
Planting HANSALAND in small drifts creates a unified block of height and colour, ideal where you want an uncomplicated but impressive display. The robust framework and own-root longevity reward patient long-term planners.
Large container on a patio or roof terrace
In a substantial 40–50 litre container with good drainage, the upright growth forms a striking vertical accent. Reliable colour and good self-cleaning reduce day-to-day fuss, particularly valuable for urban balcony owners.
Sheltered coastal or windy suburban sites
The sturdy, well-anchored shrub form copes with exposed positions, where reliable framework and balanced top growth help it withstand gusts and rain in British gardens, reassuring those in breezy locations such as coastal residents.
Styling ideas
Cottage-hedge – Run HANSALAND as an informal hedge, underplant with geraniums and catmint for softness and seasonal colour – ideal for lovers of relaxed cottage frontage.
Brickbackdrop – Place a small group against warm brick walls, pairing with foxgloves and alchemilla to highlight the crimson-red flowers – suited to classic British townhouses.
Family-screen – Use as a flowering screen beside play lawns, mixing with hardy grasses for movement and low-maintenance texture – good for busy young families.
Redfocus – Anchor a border with HANSALAND and weave through white campanulas and pale pink roses to create a controlled, colour-themed display – perfect for design-conscious owners.
Container-accent – Grow a single shrub in a 50-litre pot with trailing thyme and sedum at the base for a structured yet easy patio feature – attractive for compact urban spaces.
Technical cultivar profile
Parameter
Data
Name and registration
Shrub rose, park type; registered as KORhassi, marketed as HANSALAND – red park rose - Kordes, with American Rose Society exhibition name Hansaland for show use.
Origin and breeding
Rosa rugosa hybrid bred by Wilhelm Kordes III, W. Kordes’ Söhne, Germany; bred 1993, registered 2006, introduced after 2006 through Kordes distribution channels.
Awards and recognition
Recognised with Royal National Rose Society Certificate of Merit (1996) and quality awards at The Hague and Belfast international rose trials, underscoring garden and landscape performance.
Growth and structural characteristics
Upright, vigorous shrub reaching about 140–210 cm tall and 80–130 cm wide, densely thorned with dark, glossy green, abundant foliage that forms a full, screening structure over time.
Flower morphology
Semi-double, flat, medium-sized clustered blooms with 13–25 petals, remontant with a plentiful second flush; good self-cleaning as most spent flowers fall naturally, simplifying routine care.
Colour data and phenology
Pure vivid red with slight purple undertone; buds deep crimson, opening scarlet, deepening to dark crimson before only slight fading, giving a stable, saturated red display in summer conditions.
Fragrance and aroma
Fragrance very weak and barely perceptible; chosen primarily for colour effect, structural value and repeat flowering rather than scent, suitable where strong perfume is not desired or needed.
Hip characteristics
Moderate production of bright red, spherical hips about 18–26 mm in diameter, adding late-season interest and complementing the red flower colour once the main flowering period has passed.
Resistance and winter hardiness
Very hardy to around -34 to -32 °C (RHS H7, USDA 4a, Swedish zone 5); disease-prone foliage needs attentive monitoring and control for powdery mildew, black spot and rust in damp seasons.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in full sun with good air movement; allow room at 100–180 cm spacing depending on hedge or specimen use, maintain a regular protection and pruning regime to manage strong growth and disease.
HANSALAND offers vivid, lasting red colour, a strong, upright shrub form and dependable own-root longevity, making it a sound choice wherever you would like a bold, structural rose that rewards steady, simple care.

Pollinator Attraction:
Semi-double flowers with 13–25 petals moderately attract pollinators, as the semi-double form and partially obscured stamens limit easy access to nectar and pollen.

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.
