I'm concidering the following old roses for my zone 8,
garden. Would love comments from anyone who
has grown them.  Does it have a good bush? Will it ball
in the rain? Will I have problems like rust, mildew and
black spot? How big will it get? How hard do you trim
it? Does it require deadheading? Does the flower fade?
Will it prefer some shade or is full sun all right? (I'll put
the albas under some small apple trees.)

Alba - Great Maidens Blush, Alba Maxima.
Bourbon - Louise Odier, Boule de' Neige.
Centifolia- Chapeau de Napoleon.
Damask- Ispahan, Botzaris, Autumn Damask(bifera).
Gallica - Apothecary's Rose.
Hybrid Perpetual- Baronne Prevost.
Portland- Comte de Chambord, Jacques Cartier, Duchess
              of Portland, Rose de Rescht, Yolande d' Aragon,
              Rembrant, Sydonie.
Moss-Mme.William Paul, Salet, Shailer's White Moss.

Thanks,
Carleen in Oregon
