The first raspberry scented rose that comes to my mind is Zephirine Drouhin,
and antique staple in any Southern garden. It is virtually thornless. It
is always described as a climber, and unless Bambi is pruning mine for me, it
grows pretty slowly. I've had mine for a few years now, and it is no more
than five feet tall. I have it trained against an antique gate.
I also found a hybrid tea from Jackson & Perkins that was described as
having a raspberry scent. The name of that cultivar is Veterans' Honor. I think
J&P donates money to veterans with each rose sold.
Zephirine Drouhin can be bought from The Antique Rose Emporium in Brenham,
