Did you know
- Floribunda roses were created in the early 20th century by crossing hybrid tea roses with polyantha roses.
- Unlike hybrid teas that produce one bloom per stem, floribunda bush roses produce large clusters of flowers simultaneously.
- The name floribunda literally means 'many-flowering' in Latin, perfectly describing their prolific bloom habit.
- Bush roses produce edible rose hips rich in vitamin C, containing up to 50 times more vitamin C than oranges by weight.
- Some floribunda varieties can produce over 100 blooms at once on a single bush during peak flowering season.
