Space in the Garden for Roses - Follow up


I went out into my back yard and looked at the raised beds where I now have
6 roses in the ground, 2 larger roses in large pots and 14 miniatures in
somewhat
smaller pots and one miniature in a 4" pot which I will plant into a larger
pot
or into the raised herb bed (Culinary rose).  I was just beginning to feel 
comfortable about my 23 roses when my wife looks into the ARE catelog and
looks at the first rose in the catelog.  It is a "(something) Annie" and is
a found 
rose from Gay Hill, Texas  with beautiful dark red blooms.  It is a large rose
getting up to 6 foot x ?? foot.  Now where do I find room for that?!?!?!

I still haven't gotten my R. Rouletti which is an old miniature from which 
virtually all modern miniature roses are derived.  That would give me a nice
round number or 24 different bushes.  But, what about "__??__ Annie" ???
