Hi. I can't check in here as much as I'd like to but I had to hop on a fragrant rose discussion! :) I do not care for the tea fragrance myself - I prefer damask rose and sweet rose fragrances. Our climates are different - BS is the plague of my humid Maryland garden. I grow the following HT's on your list and you've picked some fantastic fragrant HTs but I can't comment on disease resistance in your climate. You should order them anyway - just to smell. : ) Halloween - more fruity than rosy Papa Meilland - super rosy - must get! Radiance - smooth rose A+ for disease resistance, but can ball September Morn - powdery rose Sutter's Gold - fruity Talisman - fruity Oklahoma - Papa's fragrance is stronger and better IMHO Alec's Red - spicy rose The Doctor - this one is not grown much but what an amazing scent - yowza mega fruity rose, but very prone to BS in my garden MMe. Jules Bouchet is doing very well in my garden - Vintage says she's a doer in every way - you might want to consider this rose and see how it does no spray. Amazing fragrance. Regarding marie pavie and brown leaves - My MP did the same, but I discovered it was spider mites - they really like MP. Blast the suckers off with water and watch the plant thrive. Maybe the thread discussing this is still searchable? Have fun! Here is a link that might be useful: Jules

Thank you for sharing the picture. The moles/voles ate mine in its second year. It was a beauty for the time I had it and what was so heartbreaking is that it was a gift by a friend who passed on the same year that it "disappeared" and I have wanted to replace it each year. So far I have not and yours is a reminder to get it done.

An own root gallon of Talisman, Climbing (climbing sport of Talisman) arrived here mid-April from Angel Gardens in Alachua, FL. It gets full sun from 10-4, perched in a pot on stone steps that burn bare feet in the heat of the day. Well branched & ready to flush again for the fifth time this year, there's been nothing whimpy about it. The blooms are surprisingly large for such a young plant, confections of apricot, copper, pink & amber gold with strong rich perfume of fruit & spice. They held a week or more in high heat & humidity before shedding their petals. Very impressed with its clean foliage so far in this no spray garden. Both bush & climbing versions are considered nearly thornless, and this one's shown no thorns as yet, another plus for placement & especially appreciated in a climber. Loving this one!
