Floribundas have many small flowers in clusters, and are generally low-growing. They were produced from a cross between a hybrid tea and a polyantha sometime in the 1920's. The result is a rose that flowers continuously throughout the season, producing either double, like Geisha, or hybrid tea-like (high-centered) flowers similar to Trumpeter. They tend to lack strong fragrance, though it may be detected on some plants in the morning hours. They are generally low-growing (3' to5'). Floribundas are often referred to as Cluster-Flowered roses. Larger Floribundas are classified as Grandifloras. Disease resistant varieties are Cherish, Europeana, French Lace, Gene Boerner, Iceberg, and Sunsprite.

A lovely rose covered with delicate single blooms of an exquisite soft coral. The abundant production of flowers is lovely. It is wonderful in landscaping, planted in pots, window boxes and tubs. You will absolutely love this rose.
