I know this is an old thread but its been very good and useful so I thought I'd chime in. All the roses i recommend have been mentioned here but I live very close to you in Zone 10 Florida so I thought I'd let you know what has worked in my garden. I have over 50 roses and my best performer is by far Belinda's Dream (you probably have it by now, if not, get it!). Always in bloom all year round, doesn't mind heat/humidity or rain has perfectly formed blooms AND its fragrant. It has it all! One of my other good performers so far have been some Ausitns. My BEST bloomer is Huntington rose, but it does get black spot a bit. I don't spray her so i just prune her a bit after every other flush and she keeps bouncing back. Queen of Sweden has been excellent. Not as big a bloomer as Huntington but NO black spot at all. She does grow TALL though (huntington grows WIDE), So Far she has stayed very narrow and tall. Jubilee celebration has done well but she is too new to tell if she'll get through the rainy season without too much BS. Wollerton Old Hall, great fragrance great BS resistance but bloom color is not my cup of tea (kind of a tan/beige). Alnwick rose has done well too as well as Abraham Darby (tried and true). All my Austins are in planters though, none in the ground. As for HT roses my best performers have been Mr. Lincoln, Olympiad (very good), Gold Medal (also very good), Queen Elizabeth (kind of gangly but blooms alot), iceberg and brilliant pink iceberg are great but grow wide, not tall (they stay short though). Pretty much all my HT get some black spot in the rainy season but i just trim them come fall and they do well all the way until the following May. If you are looking for a more bushy rose try the new KORDES varieties. I have had ABSOLUTELY no black spot on Lion's Fairy Tale and Mandarin Ice, and I hear all the Fairy Tales are just as good as lions. I'm getting a few more this year from that series. OH also don't forget BUCKS roses. Superb! I have Polonaise and Golden Princess and both are great with BS (very very little) but by far the best one has been Quietness! She has NO BS and beautiful fragrant blooms. Very Fragrant! Some roses to stay away from would be Oklahoma, Double delight (every one raves about her but she's a BS magnet in my garden) Angle Face (same). Cherish (love her blooms but same BS issues). I grow most of my roses in planters so you may need to see if you can find any of these on Fortuniana RS. I highly recommend the Kordes ones though, they have really thrived own root with NO disease they stand out like champs. They almost don't even look like rose bushes they are so leafy. Duchess du Brabant has been another good one. She does get a little BS but she seems to shake it off quickly. I just also got Rosette DeLizzy and clotilde soupert but they are still babies so too soon to tell. Good luck and let me know what does well in your garden!

My best for shade is 'mermaid'. I know 'new dawn' does ok in shade, too. They both rebloom sporadically- but are hardly in bloom all the time. My first thought was i don't know of anything that's gonna bloom all season, work in aft shade, and be disease free, which is why i didn't post. Most of my roses are the old type that blooms once and that's it, but i do have a few that bloom again. My shade tends to be morning shade- so mine get hot afternoon sun. Morning sun is supposed to be better for roses, so maybe that is less of a factor than i first thought. 'Red cascade' might do ok, but i have mine in sun, so i'm not sure. It's probably the best rebloomer i have- it almost always has some bloom on it, and at times is solid with color. I'll be bringing some starts to the swap. All the roses i got that i didn't get from Betty i ordered from roses unlimited.

The previous picture of Gold Glow: it's a striking celebrity in my back yard, can not help sniffing the distinctive hybrid tea scent! And shining like a gold block, made me feel rich right away, call it rose's fantasy! Top row left, TL for comparison of yellowness, bottom rose, unknown bare root, got it from Home Depot in 2005, strong fruity scented, named after my dad, Hou-Shi Ni, planted next to Dream Come True, aka my rose - Sherry Mai rose before I discovered it was DCT. Any time I have one unknown rose in my garden, thought it is fun to name it after my friend, relative or some one I respect, including Strawberryhill. Below is TM rose, or Tantarta rose: everything you can ask for: scent, shape, solid bright color, and lasts long (4 days or longer in vase): This post was edited by seaweed0212 on Tue, Jul 1, 14 at 15:44

Pink Rose, I know Cool Roses sells a wider variety of roses on their website. The ones on their site is ones that they ship. If there is a certain rose that you are looking for, I would at least suggest calling and asking if they have it. Also, Geoff will do custom grafts. I second SoFl that you should call them; they will bring things to the sale in Orlando. SoFl I love my Nahema and Dames De Chennonceau! They are doing great. Though, I tried to rescue a Nahema that someone else shovel pruned and left by the side of the road. It did not make it. I also lost one that I purchased that was in my "rose pond". I think the roots don't like it if you try and move it. I am glad to know that Edenmy eye on that one. Duchess De Brabant is beautiful, but hated my yard. I think it puts down really deep roots, because it died back in wet time of the year, even though it was not in the pond. Quietness, does well on own root. I dont think it likes to be sprayed though, but it seems to be tough without it.
