One rose I'm going to highly suggest to STAY AWAY FROM is Our Lady de Guadalupe. I don't know about the climbing variety, but I know that OLdG, even in my extremely dry climate, does get blackspot SOOO easily! Last year was the first year she wasn't pretty much nekkid from losing all her lower leaves to BS. This year, I haven't seen much yellowing on her, but when I do see a leaf, I pluck it immediately. That's just based on my own personal experience here. Shrug! Shrug! Shrug! I wish I could be more help to suggest roses, but what works for me here may be a disaster for you. Thumbs down I tip my hat to you.
Roses are one of my passions! Just opened, my Etsy shop (to fund my rose hobby)! http://www.etsy.com/shop/Tweet...
