A very vigorous floribunda in warmer climates, bare root planted in autumn 2022 in south France, up to 1.7m high & 1.2m wide in autumn 2024, very large flowers (up to 13cm in diameter), impeccable leaf health all year round. Blooms in flushes with a few flowers in between.

I think this is Mentor-Rose KORtormen. I have seen the same variety in Barcelona, Madrid and Rome rose trials, and it has the same characteristics as in the official photos of Kordes, and very similar to the photo from Le Roeulx.
In Barcelona the code is KO 11/8190-01, I assume someone made a mistake somewhere regarding the code either in Barcelona or in Le Roeulx, it’s unlikely that Kordes sends 2 very similar varieties in the same year to different trials.
Wish someone from Kordes could eventually clarify on the matter.

We will check - sometimes they answer. In the Lyon trials, the breeder code was KO 11/8190-01 as in Barcelona, and the varietal denomination KORtormen. Probably the mistake was in Le Roeulx.

Having seen the plants myself in Le Roeulx today, I can confirm that this is Mentor-Rose.
