The rose 'Iceberg' (Rosa hybrid 'Iceberg') is a variety loved by many for its beautiful flowers and relatively easy care. The following describes its growth characteristics, propagation methods, cultivation methods, garden uses, and major pests and diseases, as well as control methods. Growth Characteristics: - 'Iceberg' is a white rose characterized by semi-double or double-layered petals. - It typically grows to a height of 80–120 cm and develops an upright growth habit. - Although the flowers have a weak fragrance, they tend to bloom very profusely, making them highly valuable as ornamental plants. - It is highly cold-hardy, thrives in most regions of Korea, and prefers sunlight. Propagation Methods: - It is primarily propagated by cuttings.

To prevent these diseases, it is important to prune the plant to ensure good ventilation, along with periodic pesticide application. - Pests such as aphids can occur frequently; continuous observation and the use of insecticides when necessary are required to eliminate them. - If organic pest control is preferred, pests can be removed using soapy water or liquid chili extract.
