Rosa Candy Cane Cocktail™ is a stunning floribunda rose boasting small clusters of very full, cupped, creamy-white flowers suffused with deep pink to red edges. Packed with 42 petals, the bi-colored blossoms, 3 in. across (7 cm), bloom profusely in flushes from late spring into fall and stand out against the healthy foliage of dark green leaves. Compact and bushy, this upright shrub catches the eye and is terrific for beds and borders, containers and a great option as a flowering hedge. Exceptional disease resistance.
