From the cigarette card (see PHOTOS):

ICEBERG. (Wichuraiana Tea.) This variety belongs to a new section of roses called the dwarf perpetual Wichuraiana, which, unlike the climbing species, is a perpetual flowering race with a dwarf bushy habit. The fact that the varieties in this section are immune from mildew is a distinct advantage over many other varieties of a similar nature. Very little pruning is necessary. Introduced in 1909.
