Till Eulenspiegel ® MärchenRosen® KORuhlneu – pharmaROSA® NEONATAL rooted cutting
The MärchenRosen® floribunda Till Eulenspiegel ® offers a compact, upright shrub structure that is ideal for uniform nursery blocks and predictable bed-rose production on own roots. Its dense, mid-green, glossy foliage and medium self-cleaning support efficient maintenance regimes when scaled into standard 2–3 L container routes for retail and reseller programmes. Vivid, mid-toned scarlet, very double, ball-shaped clusters deliver strong colour presence in flowerbed, edging and cemetery applications, supported by reliable, abundant repeat flowering and a mild, delicately fruity fragrance that broadens your assortment without dominating the display. With H7 hardiness to around -29 °C and resistance rated medium overall but resistant to black spot and rust, it gives stable performance across typical UK nursery networks, including cooler regions where winter exposure and wind are a factor. Own-root material enables regenerative growth and long-term stand longevity, suited to nursery propagation beds and container grow-on where homogeneous batches and low replacement rates are critical. Structured for a standard finished-product profile with reliable garden value, this cultivar supports thematic and collection-style ranges, particularly in flowerbed and project-led assortments. From tray-rooted NEONATAL through to retail-standard containers, you can plan a clear development arc from roots in year one, to structural canopy in year two, and full ornamental impact by year three.

Technical cultivar profile
| Parameter |
Data |
| Name and registration |
Floribunda bed rose marketed as Till Eulenspiegel ® MärchenRosen® KORuhlneu, exhibition category shrub rose, registered as KORuhlneu, suited to professional own-root production lines. |

Bred and introduced in Germany by W. Kordes’ Söhne in 2017, with parentage unspecified; supplied here as own-root NEONATAL material for onward professional propagation and container grow-on. |
| Awards and recognition |
not provided |
| Growth and structural characteristics |
Compact, upright shrub reaching around 60–85 cm in height and 40–60 cm spread, with dense, mid-green, glossy foliage and moderate prickliness, forming regular, space-efficient nursery and landscape blocks. |
| Flower morphology |
Medium-sized, very double, ball to pompon-shaped flowers with 40+ petals, borne in clusters; a reliable repeat-flowering habit gives abundant first and second flushes suitable for retail-standard presentation. |
| Colour data and phenology |
Vivid mid-toned scarlet flowers (RHS 45A–46B, ARS MR), buds dark velvety scarlet, opening brilliant scarlet then maturing to muted cherry red, with only slight paler tones in strong sun and deeper hues in cooler periods. |
| Fragrance and aroma |
Mild, restrained scent with a delicately fruity character; primarily ornamental in effect, as the highly double form reduces nectar and pollen access and so is of limited pollinator interest in production planning. |
| Hip characteristics |
Produces few hips; occasional ellipsoid orange-red hips about 7–10 mm in diameter may form but are not a dominant ornamental or production feature in standard bed and container use. |
| Resistance and winter hardiness |
Rated to approximately -29 to -26 °C (RHS H7, Swedish Zone 4, USDA 5a), with medium overall disease resistance but good resistance to black spot and rust, and adequate heat tolerance when irrigated in prolonged dry spells. |
| Horticultural recommendations |
Suited to flower beds, containers and cemetery plantings with medium maintenance needs; self-cleaning is partial, so periodic deadheading is advised, using a standard container route with 2–3 L target pots or larger feature formats. |
