Snow Cone is valued for its unusual, cone-shaped, hydrangea-like form and its clusters of tiny, sparkling white petals. This is a good hedge rose. Prune in late winter and again in late summer.

Silvery-white blooms from Spring until Autumn! Bred by Jackson and Perkins and introduced in 2006 as part of the Garden Treats series, Snowcone™ is as delightfully sweet and snowy as the name implies!
The single blooms are white with gold stamens and a silvery overlay, creating an overall effect that is dreamy and romantic. These 1-inch flowers open from pointed, ovoid blooms in late spring, blooming by the dozen in clusters that complement the very glossy foliage. These enchanting blooms arrive in flushes over a very long season, persisting until frost nips them back in fall.
