Wedding Dress® Ground Cover Rose is a Jackson & Perkins exclusive introduced in 2015, bred for exceptional bloom production, soft coloring, and a versatile low-growing habit. This prolific rose begins the season with pointed ovoid buds that unfurl into bright white, 2-inch blooms brushed gently with blushing pink undertones. Each flower carries a spicy fragrance that invites you to lean in for a closer scent. With its steady flushes from late spring through mid fall, Wedding Dress creates a consistently elegant display that brings brightness and charm to any landscape.
Highly effective as a groundcover, Wedding Dress forms a plush, ruffled carpet reminiscent of a bridal train. Its compact size makes it equally useful in containers, where it spills beautifully over the edges, or in garden settings as a low hedge or front-of-the-border accent. The soft white blooms pair effortlessly with perennials such as lavender, salvia, dianthus, or silver-foliage plants, enhancing both cottage-style and contemporary designs. Whether planted singly or in large drifts, this rose contributes graceful movement and a refreshing lightness to the garden.
Plant Wedding Dress in full sun and well-drained soil, keeping it evenly moist for best performance. Feed throughout the growing season with a balanced, rose-specific fertilizer such as Dynamite™ Select Rose Fertilizer to encourage continual blooming and vigorous growth. With proper care, this blushing beauty rewards gardeners with months of fragrant flowers and a refined presence that remains attractive even when not in bloom.
