LIEBESZAUBER 91® – dark red hybrid tea rose – KORmiach

With its velvety dark-red blooms and strong fragrance, LIEBESZAUBER 91® offers a distinctive premium option for nurseries building exclusive, cut-flower capable lines from own-root material. As a bush-trained hybrid tea with 3–5 strong canes, it naturally supports a border and specimen-focused premium container route into 5–7 L, aligning well with UK retail and reseller expectations for high-grade hybrid tea presentation. The generous remontant habit and high-centred, exhibition-style flower form make it suitable for exhibition and collection-led plant ranges where flower quality and form are key decision points. Own-root production provides predictable regeneration and long lifespan, supporting stock reliability and homogeneous stands with low replacement rates, while its winter tolerance allows consistent scheduling even in cooler, wind‑exposed regions of Scotland and northern England where hardiness and structural resilience are essential. Strong colour retention and stable ruby to wine-red tones help maintain impact in premium benches and thematic rose gardens, while the rich scent and Fragrance Award recognition support added-value branding in exclusive assortments. From rooted cutting through to finished 5–7 L premium containers, you can plan a straightforward development curve—roots consolidating in year one, structural shoots in year two and full exhibition-level ornamental value in year three—supporting predictability for integrators and networked nursery production.

Usage options

Target area	Reasoning
Premium 5–7 L exhibition-grade hybrid tea for retail benches	The strong, high-centred, very double blooms and generous remontant habit support a premium container route focused on exclusive finished product where flower quality and form are paramount. Bush-trained plants with 3–5 framework canes finish well in 5–7 L, suiting specimen and border positioning in retail / reseller channels that need a visually convincing exhibition tea hybrid presence for thematic rose displays, particularly in dedicated rose gardens and collections for retail / reseller.
Own-root propagation base for exclusive dark-red hybrid tea ranges	As an own-root hybrid tea with upright habit and dense, glossy foliage, this cultivar offers a stable genetic and structural base for maintaining a consistent dark-red, cut-flower style line. Using pharmaROSA® NEONATAL rooted cuttings simplifies nursery propagation beds and container grow-on workflows, while the exclusive finished product positioning and focus on flower form allow you to construct differentiated hybrid tea assortments and private-label ranges aimed at professional rose growers.
Specimen plants for thematic and collectors’ rose gardens	The combination of award-recognised fragrance, strong scent and deep velvety red coloration makes this cultivar suitable for specimen planting in thematic rose gardens, show gardens and curated collections. The recommended premium container route into 5–7 L allows straightforward integration into ranges aimed at garden projects where individual plant impact matters, aligning with positioning that emphasises exclusive finished product and flower quality for public‑realm suppliers.
Cut-flower capable bush for mixed ornamental production	Its exhibition tea hybrid profile, solitary, high-centred flowers and long, upright stems mean it can support mixed ornamental / garden-cut flower concepts. Growing on from bush-trained, own-root material in 5–7 L premium containers enables nurseries to market it as a dual-purpose border and cut-flower option, while still meeting retail / reseller expectations for exclusive, high-form hybrid teas targeted at discerning end users via wholesale networks.
Winter-resilient hybrid tea line for cooler UK production zones	The stated hardiness (-21–-18 °C, RHS H7) and Swedish Zone 3 performance provide a sound basis for production in cooler, more exposed parts of the UK, supporting reliable overwintering of propagation beds and premium containers. Integrating this cultivar into nursery networks and integrator systems ensures consistent supply to retail / reseller channels seeking exclusive hybrid teas that can cope with colder, wind-affected sites similar to northern UK conditions for nursery networks.
Fragrance-led premium hybrid tea for high-margin assortments	The strong, classic rose fragrance and prior fragrance award at The Hague (1994) add a clear differentiation point for fragrance-led selections within premium container programmes. When produced as 5–7 L, bush-trained specimens, this supports exclusive finished product lines and collection concepts where scent is a defined selling attribute, suitable for curated retail assortments and show-garden orientated thematic collections targeting exhibition specialists.
Colour-stable dark-red feature rose for display benches	Good colour retention, controlled fading and the deep, velvety dark-red base that shifts towards wine-red create consistent bench impact over the sales window. In premium 5–7 L containers, this stability simplifies scheduling and reduces aesthetic downgrade risk, which is valuable for retail / reseller programmes and integrator systems that depend on predictable colour performance in thematic red collections and romantic-gesture inspired ranges for garden centres.
Medium-maintenance premium hybrid tea for professional care regimes	Moderate disease resistance and weak self-cleaning mean it is best suited to professional production and end users prepared for occasional pest control and deadheading. This aligns well with an exclusive finished product route, where maintenance expectations are understood and acceptable. Own-root plants support long-term regeneration and stand stability in nursery and collection contexts that value identity and sustainability for institutional projects.

Technical cultivar profile

Parameter	Data
Name and registration	Hybrid tea rose, registered as KORmiach, marketed as LIEBESZAUBER 91® (Liebeszauber). ARS exhibition name Liebeszauber; meaning “love charm”, reflecting the romantic dark-red presentation.
Origin and breeding	Bred by Reimer Kordes at W. Kordes’ Söhne, Germany, from an unknown seedling × ‘Pink Panther’; introduced and registered in Germany in 1991 by W. Kordes’ Söhne.
Awards and recognition	Fragrance Award at The Hague in 1994, underlining the strong, classic rose scent and supporting use in fragrance-led premium and collectors’ hybrid tea assortments.
Growth and structural characteristics	Upright hybrid tea bush, 100–140 cm tall and 70–110 cm spread, moderately thorny, with dense, glossy dark-green foliage; bush-trained release with 3–5 strong framework canes for structural reliability.
Flower morphology	Large, very double flowers (40+ petals), solitary on stems, high-centred with pointed, cut-rose style buds; strongly remontant with a generous second flowering, but weak self-cleaning requiring deadheading.
Colour data and phenology	Deep velvety dark-red base, ARS dr; RHS 53A outer, 53B inner. Newly opened blooms ruby red, deepening towards near-black edges; good colour retention with slight lightening in strong sun and richer tones in cool.
Fragrance and aroma	Strong, rich, classic rose fragrance forming a key attribute; highly ornamental rather than pollinator-oriented, as very double blooms conceal stamens and limit nectar and pollen accessibility.
Hip characteristics	Hip set is typically limited due to very double flowers; when formed, hips are small, spherical, around 8–12 mm in diameter, and orange-red, with minimal influence on ornamental or production decisions.
Resistance and winter hardiness	Moderate resistance to powdery mildew, black spot and rust; requires occasional plant protection. Winter-hardy to about -21–-18 °C (USDA 6b, RHS H7, Swedish Zone 3), supporting reliable overwintering in many UK sites.
Horticultural recommendations	Suited to borders, cut-flower use and specimen planting. Best used as premium container stock (5–7 L), bush-trained with 3–5 canes; medium maintenance needs with periodic pest control and deadheading recommended.

LIEBESZAUBER 91® offers award-backed fragrance, stable dark-red exhibition blooms and reliable winter performance on own roots, supporting predictable, regenerative stands for premium hybrid tea ranges—please feel free to discuss volumes and scheduling.
