Rose Coconut Ice - Climbing
Rosa Coconut Ice is a striking floribunda rose with unique two-toned flowers, featuring soft pink centres that fade to creamy white at the edges. This compact, free-flowering variety produces clusters of lightly scented blooms from late spring through to autumn. Its glossy, dark green foliage enhances the delicate beauty of the flowers while offering good disease resistance. Ideal for garden borders, mixed beds, or as a standout feature in a container, Rosa Coconut Ice suits cottage gardens, modern landscapes, and formal rose gardens. Its long-lasting flowers also make it an excellent choice for cut arrangements. Plant in full sun with well-draining, fertile soil and provide space for good air circulation. Regular deadheading and seasonal pruning will encourage continuous flowering and healthy growth. Mature size: Reaches approximately 80cm in height and 60cm in width.
Trimming: Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth appears. Remove dead, weak, or overcrowded stems to maintain an open shape. After the first flowering, lightly trim to encourage repeat blooms.
Deadheading: Regularly remove spent flowers to prolong the flowering season. Cut just above a strong leaf node to stimulate further growth.
Fertilising: Apply a rose-specific fertiliser in early spring, then again after the first flowering flush. A late summer feed helps sustain healthy growth and flowering into autumn.
Watering: Water deeply once or twice a week during dry periods, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged. Newly planted roses need consistent watering to establish strong roots.
Pest Control: Watch for common pests such as aphids and spider mites. Use insecticidal soap, neem oil, or encourage natural predators like ladybirds to manage infestations.
Disease Management: Susceptible to black spot and powdery mildew. Improve air circulation by spacing plants adequately and removing any fallen leaves. Treat with a fungicide if necessary and avoid overhead watering to reduce disease risk.
