The flowers are too packed for my preference, but that’s excusable, as the scent is bordering on unpleasant for me, with green undertones dominated by an old hard candy smell (it’s specific but the ones with flower motifs that are left for ages somewhere looking beautiful but tasting stale), despite liking anise it is hard to recognize it.

I find balling is not a big issue for me, my photo was taken after a day of intense rain (after the sun came out the next day). My garden is quite windy though.

Since the seed parent is revealed (Berolina), as the denomination name KORberonem suggests, the pollen parent may very well be Nemo from Noack.

It seems to make the most sense.

Insanely vigorous! I'm growing this as a climber in Upstate South Carolina, on the edge of zones 7 and 8. There is plenty of black spot in my humid garden, but none of it touches this rose, or most of my other Kordes roses. Madame Anisette throws up big basal canes and gobs of buds. I've only had it in the ground for two years and the longest cane is probably 10 feet. The flowers are very fragrant (licorice, which I'm not crazy about), and they look like huge, fluffy, creamy cupcakes. They last quite a while on the plant and make great cut flowers. Some buds have balled in wet weather, but there are so many that it hardly matters. I'm going to be swapping out some unhealthy roses in my garden for more Kordes!

Not surprised. Selfridges is the tallest HT I know of, and I have long considered its unknown parent is a climber of some sort, which is possibly why its shockingly healthy for a yellow hybrid tea from the 1980s.
