'Polish Spirit' is one of my favorites -- my neighbor has it by her front porch -- and such a dependable bloomer!

I changed my prize request to floribunda rose 'Julia Child' because I can just see those butter-yellow roses with a blue/violet clematis...

'Rooguchi' should stay small and scramble around nicely with 'Sharifa' -- I think it's supposed to be a relatively compact rosebush.

Seems like you might overwhelm a rose by planting 3 clems around it... but I'm thinking that way bec. I just chopped back 2/3 of a C. montana rubra that had taken over a second trellis (out-competing a young climbing hydrangea) as well as engulfing my 'Zeph. D.' (I'm not even going to try spelling that one from memory LOL).
We're all learners, doers, teachers.
