Iceberg Rose

Iceberg Rose (Rosa 'KORbin')Iceberg Rose is a classic white floribunda that brings a clean, bright look to the landscape from late spring through frost. It produces clusters of ruffled, double blooms that read crisp from a distance and soften beautifully up close, sometimes showing a faint pink flush as new flowers open. The shrub stays upright and well-branched, making it easy to place in beds, borders, and along foundations without looking messy. If you want long-season bloom with a polished, dependable habit, Iceberg is a proven choice. Distinctive FeaturesThis floribunda rose is known for its steady clusters of double white flowers, typically 2 to 4 inches across, repeating from late spring into fall. The bloom display is generous and continuous, with mild fragrance and a bright, clean color that pairs with any palette. Glossy green foliage provides a fresh backdrop, and the plant develops an upright, well-branched form that looks full through the season. Mature size is typically about 3 to 5 feet tall and 2 to 3 feet wide. Growing Conditions Sun: Full sun is best for maximum flowering and healthiest growth, with 6 or more hours of direct light each day. Soil: Plant in fertile, well-drained soil and amend with organic matter for best performance. Water: Water deeply and consistently during establishment, then water during dry spells while avoiding waterlogged soil. USDA Zones: Zones 5 to 9. Spacing: Provide room for airflow to support cleaner foliage and better bloom quality through humid weather. Ideal Uses Focal Point: Use as a focal point in a sunny bed where clusters of white blooms can brighten the planting from late spring through fall. Hedges and Rows: Plant in a row to create a low, flowering hedge with a clean, classic look. Foundation Beds: Adds structure and long-season bloom along the house without overwhelming the space. Mixed Borders: Blends easily with perennials and shrubs, providing a crisp white accent that ties colors together. Mass Planting: Plant in groups for a strong, luminous sweep of white that reads well from a distance. Low Maintenance Care Pruning: Prune in late winter to early spring to remove dead wood and shape the shrub for strong new flowering growth. Deadheading: Remove spent clusters to keep the plant tidy and encourage faster repeat bloom. Watering: Water at the base to keep foliage drier and reduce disease pressure. Feeding: Fertilize in spring and again after the first bloom flush to support continuous flowering. Mulching: Mulch to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and moderate soil temperatures around the root zone. Why Choose Iceberg Rose?
