Khalid, you said that fragrance is your top priority. I imagine heat resistance is also an important criterion. Is rain resistance also one of your criteria? I personally don't have to worry much about rain resistance because we have so little rain during the blooming season, but I'm always surprised by the lack of rain-resistance information in so many databases. I would include it in our database if I had a comprehensive source for this information. The only database I've seen with the information is the Russian one, rosebook.ru. It rates roses by showing differing numbers of raindrops. In this entry for Rhapsody in Blue, for example, they give the rose three raindrops, which is very good.
