We have (identified): Alba semi-plena, Konegin von Danemark, Maiden's Blush, 
Felicite Parmentier, Rose de Rescht, Tuscany Superb, Gallica officinalis.

We have two old climbers and one old red rambler which I will someday be 
getting around to identifying for certain [I think the climbers are Blaze(?) 
and Dr. Huey(?) and the rambler is Excelsa(?), but not for sure]. I'd like 
to say we don't spray these, either, however, they are growing in such 
closeness to our grapevines that there is no way to avoid spraying them when 
we do the grapes.

We recently planted Champney's Pink Cluster from the Thomas Jefferson Center 
for Historic Plants. It is a noisette which is supposed to be too tender for 
around here.  But since we have a fig growing in our backyard, and that's 
pretty tender, too, I thought we should give it a try.
