Knirps at a glance
Meet the charming 'Knirps' rose, also known as 'Little Chap', a gem among ground-cover roses. This ADR®-certified rose, bred by Kordes in 1997, captivates with an abundance of small (3–5 cm), double pink flowers that bloom tirelessly from June well into October. Although fragrance-free, 'Knirps' more than makes up for this with its unparalleled flowering power and excellent health, making it a reliable and cheerful presence in any garden.
'Knirps' is the ideal choice for anyone looking for a low-maintenance and versatile rose. With its compact height of 20–30 cm, it is perfect as a ground cover, creating a dense carpet of pink. But this hardy rose also comes into its own in pots (from Ø 40 cm), borders, or parks. Its repeat-flowering nature and robust growth provide months of enjoyment with minimal effort.
At Belle Époque Rose Nursery in Aalsmeer, you can buy this organically grown (SKAL-certified) rose directly from the grower. With more than 40 years of expertise, we select only the highest-quality and healthiest roses for your garden. 'Knirps' is carefully shipped from our nursery, ensuring you receive a top-quality plant that has been lovingly grown.
