‘KORgeleflo’ was the resultant seedling from a cross between the seed parent ‘KORgosumo’ and an unnamed seedling in May 2000 at the breeding facility of W. Kordes Sohne in Sparrieshoop, Germany. The seedling was selected in May 2001 and was budded onto Rosa canina planted in the open field. Follow up selections took place in 2002 and 2003 and was commercially introduced in October 2008. Breeder: Wilhelm Kordes.

The new variety of rose plant of the present invention originated from a controlled crossing made in a rose breeding program between `KORgosumu`, a non-patented rose by the same breeder, and an `un-named seedling`. The controlled crossing was made during the summer of 2000.
