Rose - Sub Zero

Common Name:
Rose 'Sub Zero'

Description:
Rose 'Sub Zero' is a captivating floribunda rose introduced in the early 2000s, prized for its pure white blooms and robust garden performance. The flowers are fully double, medium-sized, and borne in abundant clusters, often 4–7 blooms per stem. Each blossom features glossy petals arranged in a classic rosette form and is softly fragrant. This rose repeats flowering generously from late spring through to autumn, creating a reliable display of clean white colour in garden beds, borders, or containers. The plant forms a compact, bushy shrub with dark green, disease-resistant foliage and virtually no thorns, making it a low-maintenance yet elegant option for Melbourne gardens.
