The climbing rose “Anise Koltz Poète” captivates with its large clusters of double flowers in a deep red colour. The shape of the flowers of this modern variety is similar to that of old roses. This rose enhances even the most refined floral arrangements. The dense, lush green foliage is healthy. Well suited to cold weather, this creation has everything to please.
Anise Koltz-Blanpain, born on 12 June 1928 in Eich (L), grandniece of Emile Mayrisch, was an internationally renowned Luxembourgish author. Together with her husband Dr René Koltz, Anise Koltz initiated the Mondorf Literary Days. She has received numerous Luxembourgish and international literary honours, including the 2018 Prix Goncourt de Poésie. To mark the 90th birthday of the Grande Dame of Luxembourgish literature, the association Patrimoine Roses pour le Luxembourg launched this magnificent red climbing rose in her honour.
The “Anise Koltz Poète” rose was christened on 7 June 2018 in the rose garden of the Mondorf-les-Bains Thermal Spa.
