Description:
‘Pink Forest Rose’ is a floribunda / modern shrub rose bred by Kordes. It is a sport of ‘Black Forest Rose’ and offers vibrant hot-pink blooms that maintain intensity even under strong sunlight. The flowers are semi-double to lightly filled, carried in clusters, and the plant is valued for its robustness and repeat flowering habit.
