Floribunda rose 'Iceberg'

Floribunda Rose 'Iceberg' (Rosa 'Iceberg'). Rosa floribunda 'Iceberg', commonly known as the 'Iceberg' floribunda rose, is an iconic variety renowned for its exceptional bloom and high reliability in the garden. Its compact, well-branched bushy habit is covered with abundant clusters of pure white, semi-double flowers, slightly ivory in bud, which continuously renew from early summer until the first frosts. Delicately scented, they release a light, fresh fragrance that attracts pollinating insects. Very floriferous and vigorous, this rose offers a remarkable luminous effect in beds, borders, or as an edging plant.

To plant the 'Iceberg' floribunda rose, choose a suitable exposure: full sun. The recommended soil is: rich, well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral. Water at the base and allow air to circulate between the branches. Remove dead parts with a clean tool, then adapt pruning to the rose's group. Winter protection depends on its hardiness and the potential presence of a graft union. Water the root ball before planting it and ensure water can drain after planting. During establishment, check moisture by hand before watering again.

Allow a width of 1 m (3 ft) to arrange this plant's space in the garden. The indicated height of 1.2 m (4 ft) helps choose its position relative to neighboring plants. Maintain access to the base for weeding, checking moisture, and removing damaged parts. Associate this variety with plants whose light and water needs are compatible. If you are considering a container, first check that its volume and drainage are suitable for root development. Roots in pots are more exposed to cold than those planted in the ground.
