All are genus Rosa - the Rosaceae family would take an encyclopia to list!

I've been growing roses for about 35 of my 40 years on this planet, but I
doubt if I have any knowledge above and beyond what most avid rosarians
possess. I do, however, try and keep a few good books handy - The info
regarding the species classifications came from Peter Beale's Classic Roses
(revised edition) my interests include just about anything green and
growing, but predominately roses and orchids.
