‘ZARSBJOH’ was selected as a seedling that resulted from the controlled cross-pollination carried out by the inventor in a cultivated area of Somis, Calif., USA. The breeding began in 1985 by crossing an individual plant Rosa×hybrida (species, unpatented) as the female parent and an individual of Rosa×hybrida ‘WEKsnacare’ (unpatented) as the male parent. Seed was collected from hips formed on the female parent and coded as 20150, then sown with the intention of making a selection from the seedlings that resulted. ‘ZARSBJOH’ was selected in 2006
