Right rose, right place: The success of the ubiquitous Iceberg' rose

German hybridizer Kordes crossed the red hybrid musk rose, Robin Hood' (1927) developed by Joseph Pemberton in England, and the white hybrid tea, Virgo' (1927), bred in France by Charles Mallein. The cross produced Rosa KORbin', a very healthy floriferous floribunda that bloomed in large clusters of medium-size lightly double, white flowers. In 1958, this rose was introduced to the world. It is known as Iceberg' in the USA, Schneewittchen (Snow White)' in Germany and Fee des Neiges (Snow Fairy)' in France.
