WHITE FLOWER CARPET – white groundcover rose – Noack
If You would like a reliable, low‑effort rose that simply gets on with the job, WHITE FLOWER CARPET is an ideal choice for busy Irish gardens. Its spreading habit quickly forms a dense, glossy green carpet that suppresses weeds and keeps borders looking tidy with very little work. The clusters of pure white, self‑cleaning flowers fall away neatly after blooming, so You spend more time enjoying and less time dead‑heading. Bred for strong disease resistance, it copes well with our humid summers and heavy rain, even where the soil needs better drainage in heavier clay. As an own‑root shrub it settles in, regenerates steadily and offers a long garden life. Think of its development as year one for strong roots, year two for shaping shoots, and year three for the full, snow‑white display that anchors Your front garden or cottage‑style planting beautifully.

Origin and breeding
Bred by Werner Noack in Germany (1991) from ‘Flower Carpet Pink’ × ‘Margaret Merrill’; introduced after 1992 via Anthony Tesselaar Plants, combining landscape toughness with decorative flowering.
Awards and recognitions
Holds ADR (1991) for proven garden performance and health; RHS Award of Garden Merit (2012) and Glasgow Certificate of Merit (1996) confirm its reliability in varied European climates.
Growth and structure
Low, spreading groundcover reaching about 50–80 cm in height and 100–170 cm spread; dense, glossy dark green foliage, moderately thorny shoots, forming a wide, weed-suppressing carpet with minimal shaping.
Flower morphology
Semi-double, flat, medium-sized blooms (about 1.5–2.75 inches) carried in clusters; 13–25 petals per flower, repeating well through the season with a generous second flush and good self-cleaning of spent blooms.
Colour and phenology
Crystal-clear white flowers, occasionally with a creamy tint in the centre; buds ivory with a faint green tip, opening brilliant snow white, then gently paling to creamy white with translucent petal edges before dropping cleanly.
Fragrance and aroma
Very weak, barely perceptible scent with a clean, rose-like character; chosen more for visual impact and garden performance than perfume, making it suitable where fragrance is not the main priority.
Rose hip characteristics
Occasionally forms small, spherical orange-red hips about 5–8 mm in diameter; production is light and does not significantly affect flowering or the plant’s tidy appearance.
Resistance and hardiness
Outstanding disease resistance to black spot, powdery mildew and rust; hardy to about −21 to −18 °C (H7, USDA 6b), tolerates heat and short dry spells yet benefits from watering during extended droughts.
Horticultural recommendations
Suited to groundcover, edging, beds, containers and urban green spaces; low feeding and pruning needs, happy in full sun or partial shade; for pots, choose at least 40–50 litres with good drainage and consistent moisture.
WHITE FLOWER CARPET offers self-cleaning white flowers, strong disease resistance and long-lived own-root reliability, giving You a low-maintenance groundcover rose that steadily settles into Your garden, worth considering for Your next planting.

Information about the videos
The video series is not a “seasonal showcase”, but makes the essence of pharmaROSA® own-root production tangible: how the plant is built, what the root system is like and how the shoots renew themselves. The footage was therefore taken at different times, showing plants at different stages of development, so mixed leaf coverage or differing growth stages may appear in the videos. This is not a “sample” of the batch delivered, but an illustration of how the technology works. The current condition of the rose available to order — typical of the given period and similar to what you can expect to receive in the parcel — is shown at the top of the product page.
