Description of floribunda rose
The floribunda rose was developed by crossing musk, polyanthus and hybrid tea roses. Like polyanthas, it is quite resistant to disease and winter-hardy. Compared to hybrid teas, it has a longer flowering period, although it may be inferior to them in elegance.
However, this is the best decoration for the garden: the peculiarity of this species lies in the arrangement of flowers.
They grow on a shoot not singly, but as a whole inflorescence (several dozen flowers). Floribunda is easy to care for. Therefore, it is widely used to decorate parks and gardens, especially in group compositions.
The floribunda variety includes roses that have large inflorescences and an almost continuous flowering period. They are most similar to hybrid teas both in flower shape and range of colors.
These roses have a spreading bush, reaching a meter in width and one and a half meters in height. Large flowers (up to 12 cm in diameter) are collected in a racemose inflorescence. They can have a variety of colors and degrees of terry. When describing the floribunda rose, it should be noted that, unfortunately, most roses in this group are scentless.

Tell me, does the Iceberg rose come in a light pink color?
No, Iceberg is always pure white. Why do you ask, did they slip you the wrong variety?
Yes, last year I wanted to plant white roses.At the market they said that they have the Iceberg variety, pure white. Although the roses grew beautiful, they were not white at all. I'll try again this year.
This happens quite often in the market. Be careful.
Buy seedlings of roses and other plants in nurseries; as a rule, no one is deceived there
It's good if there is such an opportunity. Unfortunately, in small towns, seedlings can only be bought at the market.
I observed the following picture at the market: the sellers have roses sorted by “grade”, all with photographs, and after the market they remove the signs and photos and dump everything in Gazelle in one pile. They will explain it like this: “Well, just think, the rose will not be the same color, but it’s still beautiful.”
Never tell market sellers what variety you are looking for. Let them list the varieties they have. If you say that I need such and such a variety, they will immediately offer it to you. And it will be unknown what. Not all of them are sellers, of course, but the majority are.
Everyone gathered here, deceived. There are eyes, watch what you take. For some reason I have never been deceived.
I envy you, Elena Viktorovna, you still have everything ahead.
