Bonica Rose
Pink Floribunda Roses
Bonica Rose has large clusters of soft candy pink fully double blooms. These Pink Floribunda roses are the perfect hedge roses, and shrub rose.
No garden should be without the stellar shrub named World's Favorite Rose in 1997. The compact bush features clusters of dainty shell pink flowers and glossy, disease-resistant foliage. The parade of bloom from Bonica® continues until frost and is followed by an abundance of bright orange-red hips. An ideal choice for beginners.
