Planted in August 2022, the rose bush has barely grown and is practically dead. However, I have taken care of it and it was planted according to the recommendations. Nevertheless, it was delivered in poor condition, I would have made a complaint earlier if I had known.

This hybrid rose  stands out for the charming colour of its flowers, and its natural resistance to diseases attested by the German label A.D.R. Not very large (6 to 7 cm (2 to 3in)), but well-formed, they bloom abundantly in successive waves, from June to October, on a bush with an upright habit of 80 cm (32in) in height that is perfectly suitable for planting in flower beds but also for pot cultivation to decorate the balcony or terrace. The soft roses of 'Impala', with apricot and pink tones, are superb in romantic bouquets. 
Best planting time March, October to November
Recommended planting time February to April, September to November

Description

The Patio Rose 'Impala' is a lovely creation from Kordes that combines floribundity, charm, and natural resistance to diseases, qualities that have made the reputation of the German rose breeder. This bush is adorned with beautiful, dark green foliage, which serves as a backdrop for well-double roses of perfect form, typical of tea roses, in the colours of dawn. The abundant flowering continues throughout the summer and into autumn on this small bush that received the highly demanding German A.D.R label in 2019. A charming rose that can be appreciated in borders or pots on the balcony. Its flowers are also perfect for romantic bouquets.

The Rosa x floribunda 'Impala' was introduced by rose breeder Kordes Rosen in 2010. It is part of a series of roses, the 'Patio Rose', selected in partnership with 'Globe Planter' for their floribundity and excellent adaptation to pot cultivation. 'Impala' is a hybrid tea rose that has an upright and bushy habit, well-branched. This bush reaches a height of approximately 80 cm (32in) with a spread of 50 cm (20in). Its thorny stems bear dark olive green leaves, divided into five finely toothed leaflets, resistant to diseases. Its flowering is long, repeating in successive waves from May to June to October if the soil remains moist. Enclosed in green sepals, the buds open into well-double roses measuring 6 to 7 cm (2 to 3in) in diameter, gathered in clusters. Their unusual orange colour hovers between soft salmon pink and pastel apricot. The flower's centre is more vibrant, while the periphery is lighter. The foliage is deciduous and falls in autumn.

Bush roses allow for the creation of sumptuous flower beds that bloom for months, whether planted in groups of 3 to 5 plants or mixed, combining colours. They make good companions for phlox and hardy geraniums. This variety 'Impala' pairs well with white or even mauve roses. For example, it can be surrounded by catmints, perennial salvias, and blue, mauve, or white false indigo. It can also be combined with baby's breath, bronze fennel, or lavender. This hardy rose that requires little maintenance will thrive in full sun or partial shade. It will delight all gardeners, whether beginners or experienced.

Planting and care

To plant an 'Impala' rose, plant it in well-drained soil between November and March. Roses like clay soil, but if the soil is sandy, compact or dry, add compost to the planting hole. Don't plant it in waterlogged soil in winter. Place it in a sunny or partially shaded area. Roses need a lot of nutrients, so use a specific fertiliser at the start of vegetation and throughout the flowering period. To encourage repeat flowering, remove faded flowers regularly. Prune the stems by about one-quarter of their length (from 4 to 6 buds from the base of the stem) in March. Prune above an outward-facing bud so that the bush can fill out and the branches don't become tangled in the centre of the canopy. Floribunda rose varieties are more vigorous and floriferous than large-flowered rose varieties.

Roses may develop unsightly spots at the end of summer, but this is a natural occurrence and doesn't harm the rose's growth.
