Hybrid teas are okay, I like them, but where I live  in my zone 4b garden; they are mostly annuals.  I have a number of Hardy Roses here, many only blooming in the Spring.  They have character, and do not need the care of hybrid teas.  Many are very old.  Ever hear of the War of The Roses?

Work in progress.  The "huge Rose files" below have them.  But don't go there unless you have broadband high speed access.  There are 198 thumbnails to load there, then you can decide what to see, and expand.  Your browser will be slow in returning to the thumb nail page after expansion.
