Iceberg
The Iceberg rose (Korbin rose) is a fantastic white rose for a part shade garden or outside space. This ice white rose has a light, sweet fragrance. Wildlife love the open flower, which keeps its white colour throughout the heat of the summer compared to other roses.
Top Tip
Feed Iceberg well with a rose fertiliser to help ward-off blackspot. Do this when planting, at the end of May before flowering and again during mid summer.
How to care for Iceberg
