Abracadabra ® – Fantasia® floribunda rose on own roots
Step into the quietly theatrical charm of Abracadabra®, where each bloom opens like a tiny work of living art, its deep carmine petals brushed with lemon-yellow stripes that hold their colour well in summer light. This compact, upright shrub sits comfortably in a London front garden or small family border, coping well with typical British showers and blustery spells in coastal districts while you simply enjoy the show. Semi‑double flowers are moderately pollinator friendly, inviting bees between the petals, and repeat generously in clustered flushes for a long season of colour. As an own‑root rose it establishes steadily, building a resilient framework and reliable flowering over years with minimal fuss. In a roomy bed or a large 40–50 litre container, its dense, glossy foliage gives a neat structure even between flushes, and, year by year, this premium shrub offers enduring ornamental value in a sustainable, rainwater‑wise city or suburban planting.

Usage options
Target area
Reasoning
Front garden feature shrub
The bold, striped flowers create instant kerb appeal in a modest space, while the compact, bushy habit keeps paths clear and proportions balanced in narrow front gardens; ideal for a single, eye‑catching focus for the urban homeowner
Small mixed flower bed
Steady, upright growth and dense foliage make this rose a reliable “anchor” plant among perennials, offering repeat colour bursts without crowding nearby plants; perfect when you want structure without complex pruning for the busy gardener
Rain‑aware cottage border
Abracadabra® copes well with typical UK rain and wind, especially where free‑draining soil is combined with careful rainwater use, supporting resilient planting that still feels romantic and informal for the sustainability‑minded
Statement container on balcony or patio
In a 40–50 litre pot with peat‑free compost and regular watering, this compact shrub gives a long display close to eye level, with flowers opening in successive clusters that soften hard urban surfaces for the balcony gardener
Low, colourful bed or edging
Its moderate height and upright habit suit low bedding schemes along drives or paths, delivering repeated colour without forming an overpowering hedge, and needing only occasional deadheading and shaping for the time‑pressed owner
Own‑root long‑term planting
As an own‑root rose it develops a stable root system and recovers better from accidental damage or severe pruning, supporting a long lifespan and dependable shape in a family garden for the value‑focused buyer
Wildlife‑aware decorative planting
Semi‑double flowers offer moderate access to pollen for visiting insects, and decorative orange‑red hips later in the season add extra interest, contributing to a gently wildlife‑supportive but ornamental scheme for the pollinator‑curious
Developing family garden project
This shrub beds in steadily, building roots, then strong shoots, then full display over its first few years, providing a reassuring, low‑effort backbone as a new or renovated garden slowly takes shape for the patient beginner
Styling ideas
Striped‑Showcase – Give Abracadabra® a solo spot by the front gate, underplanted with low lavender for fragrance and bee interest – ideal for design‑conscious city dwellers.
Urban‑Bouquet – Combine in a small bed with Nepeta and soft pink salvias so the stripes pop against cool blues – well suited to beginners wanting easy harmony.
Rain‑Garden‑Ribbon – Line a free‑draining, gravel‑topped strip along the drive, spacing shrubs for airflow and colour continuity – perfect for households planning rain‑aware planting.
Patio‑Gallery – Plant one shrub in a 50‑litre, frost‑proof pot with peat‑free compost and grit, flanked by herbs, to create a living artwork corner – great for balcony and terrace gardeners.
Family‑Story – Use two or three shrubs as repeating accents through a mixed border, letting their long flowering season knit together changing perennials – fitting for families growing a garden over time.
Technical cultivar profile
Property
Data
Name and registration
Floribunda bed rose from the Fantasia® collection; registered as KORamsaro, marketed as Abracadabra ® Fantasia®; approved exhibition name Abracadabra in American Rose Society listings.
Origin and breeding
Bred by W. Kordes & Sons in Germany, breeding completed 2004; introduced 2014 through W. Kordes’ Söhne with parentage not disclosed, selected for decorative colour effect and garden performance.
Growth and structural characteristics
Bushy, upright shrub, typically 80–110 cm high and 50–80 cm wide; moderately thorny with dense, glossy dark green foliage, forming a compact, well‑filled framework suitable for beds, edging and containers.
Flower morphology
Semi‑double, cupped blooms of 13–25 petals, mostly produced in clusters; large flower size around 7–10 cm, remontant with abundant second and later flushes, though spent blooms benefit from regular deadheading.
Colour data and phenology
Deep carmine‑red ground with lemon‑yellow stripes (RHS 187A outer, 10B inner); buds raspberry‑crimson with marbling, opening to vivid, streaked flowers that fade slowly to burgundy‑raspberry and cream tones.
Fragrance and aroma
Very weak fragrance with a delicate, classic rose character; scent is barely noticeable in typical garden conditions, so planting is best planned for visual impact rather than for aromatic performance.
Hip characteristics
Forms moderately abundant, spherical orange‑red hips, typically 6–10 mm in diameter; hips extend visual interest into autumn and can be left for seasonal colour where not all spent flowers are removed.
Resistance and winter hardiness
Rated to around −21 to −18 °C (H7, USDA 6b, Swedish Zone 3); moderate tolerance to heat and drought with watering in dry spells; disease resistance moderate to black spot, powdery mildew and rust.
Horticultural recommendations
Best in a sunny site with free‑draining soil; suited to beds, edging, specimens, parks and cutting. Maintenance is medium, with occasional plant protection and deadheading to keep bushes tidy and flowering well.
Abracadabra ® Fantasia® offers compact structure, long‑season colour and moderate pollinator appeal in a durable own‑root form that rewards patient gardeners with years of steadily improving performance, making it a thoughtful choice for your next planting.
Flower Colour Description:
The petal ground colour is deep carmine red, crossed by lemon-yellow stripes.
Closed Bud:
Raspberry to crimson-red base, with white marbling and scattered speckling visible at the edges.
Newly Opened Flower:
On a vivid carmine-red ground, irregular cream–butter-yellow, in places peach-coloured streaks and splashes appear on the inner surface.
Full Bloom:
A red–white 'striped' effect dominates; the red areas tend towards a slightly raspberry shade and the whites may turn creamy.
Before Fading:
The red tone softens, turning to a burgundy‑raspberry; the light bands can take on a creamy, slightly yellowish hue.
Pollinator Attraction:
Semidouble (simple/semidouble/double) 13–25‑petal flowers moderately attract pollinators, as the semidouble form and partially obscured stamens reduce pollen and nectar accessibility compared with simple blooms.

Information about the videos
The video series is not a “seasonal showcase”; it illustrates the essence of pharmaROSA® own-root cultivation in a tangible way: how the plant is built up, what the root system is like and how the shoot system regenerates. The recordings were therefore made at different times and with plants at various stages of development, so mixed foliage levels and differing stages of growth may appear in the videos. They are not a ‘sample’ of the batch dispatched, but a visual explanation of how the technology works. The current condition of the rose available to order — typical for the given period and similar to what you can expect to receive in the parcel — is shown in the upper part of the product page.
