The 'Iceberg' Rose (Rosa 'Iceberg') is a highly popular and widely cherished floribunda rose known for its prolific blooming and elegant, pure white flowers. It's a shrubby deciduous plant, meaning it loses its leaves in winter.
'Iceberg' is celebrated for its abundant clusters of medium-sized (around 2-3 inches in diameter), pure white, semi-double to double flowers. The blooms have a delicate, slightly sweet fragrance and appear almost continuously from late spring through to the first frosts of autumn.
'Iceberg' roses have a medium to fast growth rate, quickly establishing themselves and reaching a mature size of 3-5 feet tall and wide within a few years with proper care.
Unlike some more demanding rose varieties, 'Iceberg' is remarkably unfussy. It's known for its vigor and ability to thrive with minimal fuss, making it a great choice for gardeners who want high impact with less effort.

Ideal temperatures range from 41°F to 95°F (5°C to 35°C).
