Where to grow Brilliant Pink Iceberg Rose
Brilliant Pink Iceberg Rose suits warm-temperate, cool-temperate, Mediterranean and subtropical climates and grows best in full sun and part shade or morning sun. It is frost hardy and shrugs off cold winters.
Soil & planting
Brilliant Pink Iceberg Rose does best in free-draining and loamy soil. Plant into well-prepared ground, firm the soil around the roots and water deeply to settle it in. For a screen, space plants about 60 cm apart.
Watering & feeding
Brilliant Pink Iceberg Rose does best with regular, moderate watering. Feed as new growth begins, following the rate on a balanced garden fertiliser. For the first year, favour occasional deep watering over frequent shallow drinks so roots move into the surrounding soil.

Prune Brilliant Pink Iceberg Rose after flowering to keep it compact and encourage the next flush of blooms. It clips well, so trim two or three times a year for a formal finish. For most gardens, it is low maintenance.
Using Brilliant Pink Iceberg Rose in the garden

Companion planting & design
Brilliant Pink Iceberg Rose sits most comfortably beside plants adapted to regular, moderate watering and warm-temperate climate. A small cluster gives stronger visual impact than isolated plants scattered through the garden.
