I personally prefer hybrid teas, grandifloras, floribundas, and Austins because they're more predictable and they don't take up as much room as most of the OGR's. There are some Austins that go nuts and get 10 times as big as you'd expect, of course. I'm having that problem with Tea Clipper. I never expected it to shoot up to 10 feet tall in the first year. It's also quite wide. So far, I've pruned it back twice and surrounded it on two sides with a trellis and a pillar-shaped structure, but it might take more than that to keep it within bounds.
