I now have ROSES what next?

I just received my shipment of 10 miniatures which now brings my total count
of roses to 21.  They are:

	Rosa palustris scandens (Swamp Rose)

	OGR's:		Mutabilis, Louis Philippe, Cramoisi Superieur, Dortmund

	Miniatures:	Black Jade, Winsome, Child's Play, Chasin' Rainbows, 
			Bambino, Jeanne Lajoie, Jean Keneally, Absolutely, Jerry-O,
			Scentsational, Livewire, Sunny Day, and two more which I
			think are Autumn Sunblaze, and a yellow sunblaze.

The miniatures came in very small and I will plant them in containers so I
will
look for another larger climber which I will put in the garden on the side 
opposite the Dortmund.  I know that the Jeanne Lajoie is also a climber but I
will try to set it up in a pot where I can locate a smaller type trellis
behind
it.  These are some of the challenges I have to deal with.

Otherwise I can say that I still have at least two more roses on my definite 
"get" list.  Those are the R. roulettii, and a miniature Meidilland rose
called
"Candy Sunblaze" which I may put in the herb garden as a culinary rose.  I
will
decide on another rose which can be trained as a climber that stays just a
little
smaller but if anyone has a suggestion I am inclined to OGR's.  I may just put
a regular Rose there and not a climber.  In that case my possibilities are 
endless!!!
