Burgundy Iceberg Rose

Rich, fragrant, smoky burgundy flowers bloom non-stop on this very hardy and disease resistant rose.

In cooler locations in the garden, the mature Burgundy Iceberg rose will produce flowers with blue-purple undertones; in warmer high humidity areas, flowers tend to have a red or pink cast to them. Reaching a mature size of three feet by three feet, this floriferous rose is ideal for planting in groups of three or more to create a flowering hedge. Grow this rose for its blooms and for its foliage; bright green, semi-glossy leaves act as a pleasing backdrop to the blooms. Pair Burgundy iceberg rose with white roses such as Iceberg Rose, or pale blush pink roses such as Morden Blush for a lovely contrast in the rose garden. Grown on its own root, this rose requires no winter protection even in USDA zones 3 or 4.
