Alya, first a few questions. Where do you live? We may need to set some hardiness limits, so we need to know your gardening zone.

Were all of these roses on the property when you moved in? If so, how many years ago was that? We have to be able to rule out roses that weren't available in commerce until recently.

If these are roses that came with the property, have you been able to identify any of them? Sometimes it helps to narrow down a gardener's favorite nursery. One of the roses on your plant list, for instance, is Nostalgie, which was carried only by Hortico for years.

My initial guesses, just from looking at the pictures, are Grand Siecle and Mrs. Lovell Swisher for the hybrid tea on the bottom.

Rose (Rosa 'Grand Siecle')

Rose (Rosa 'Mrs. Lovell Swisher')

The rose in the middle group of photos reminds me of Freisinger Morgenrote and Rainbow Sorbet, but I'm just judging by the way mine look at certain times of the year. How tall is the rose bush?

Shrub Rose (Rosa 'Freisinger Morgenrote')

Rose (Rosa 'Rainbow Sorbet')

I'm not even going to hazard a guess at the yellow one. There are so many yellow roses that look like this one. Is it a short hybrid tea?
