Zuzu, I know you've not been satisfied with RVR; I included them because they are the only online nursery I could find that (presumably) carries Singin' in the Rain. It was consistently one of my longest blooming roses -- remember the photo I took several years of it blooming in the snow on Thanksgiving day here in New York? My only complaint about this rose is that the stamens are quick to turn brown and a little mushy while the petals hold up for a very long time.
Terri, that's a great vintage photo! If you're looking to be inspired to grow roses like your grandmother did, you've come to the right place. The online database we've assembled of individual cultivars is among the best in existence. And there are lots of photographs in the numerous threads showing the members' roses. If you want to see some photos of garden designs, you'll find some of them here, too. (And not to take you away from this resource-filled website, but you can also visit my site at www.lens-work.com and select the photo album for a Hudson Valley Rose Garden to see photos of garden layouts, in addition to rose "portraits".)
Regarding your wooded landscape, several years ago there used to be a website titled A Woodland Rose Garden. I think you can only view the archived version of it now, but you might find it interesting:
