About Westerland™ Bare Root Rose Bush
Rosa ‘KORlawe’ — Westerland™
🌹 A Kordes Climbing / Shrub Rose
Westerland™ is one of Kordes’ most iconic roses—famous for its glowing, sunset-colored blooms and vigorous, carefree performance. Its large, semi-double flowers open in a dazzling blend of apricot, copper, gold, and soft orange, often deepening or brightening depending on temperature and light. Each bloom is richly scented with a warm fruity-spice fragrance, making it as intoxicating to smell as it is to admire.
Growing as either a large shrub or a short climber, Westerland™ covers itself in bloom after bloom, with outstanding repeat throughout the season. Its upright, arching canes and glossy disease-resistant foliage make it an excellent choice for trellises, fences, cottage gardens, and anywhere bold color and fragrance are desired. A true classic with decades of devoted fans.
Why Gracie Loves It
“Westerland™ is pure golden sunshine. The apricot-orange blooms glow at every stage, and the fragrance is warm, bright, and absolutely unforgettable.”
