Geof - Also, an absolute gorgeous once-bloomer that I have is Charles de Mills.. smells luscious, looks even better. HOWEVER!!! One of the worst roses I've ever grown.. it suckers and my particular version (I got it as an own-root from Roses Unlimited) is the thorniest rose on the planet. Be warned!!! Supposedly it's supposed to be thornless.. but mine's horrific!!! I've asked RU about it and they never got back to me on it.
