Maria Shriver has a wonderful fragrance but in high temps, blooms are small and fry out quickly.
Mary Rose did very well in springs but as the temps shot up, it blooms sparingly. Not performing that well in hot temps.
Mirandy has a heavenly fragrance even on hot days. This is the first bloom on the cutting planted in Feb this year. A fairly big first bloom.

Oklahoma has a reduced fragrance but bloom size is still good (3.5"). Bush is growing very well in full sun. Blooms last for 2 days in full sun.

PAOK bush is growing well. Blooms profusely but small size with mild fragrance. Blooms fry out in 2-3 hours only.
A rose without scent is just half a rose
