    Yes Sjoerd, Double Delight is exotic, a must have.

    Sherry, have you tried any of the disease resistant roses. The Knock Out Roses are pretty and there a many more varieties. Google disease resistant roses and see what you come up with.

    That "Marnalade Pink" is a nice-looking one! It looks like a confectionary one that a person could eat, almost.

    I don't think I can pick just one......

    The ability to survive our harsh winters plays a big role in determining my favorite roses, and I would have a hard time picking just one! (I've got way too many, but it's not a bad habit to have, LOL)

    Here's a few of my favorites, I tend to like loud colors:

    Betty Boop

    Fragrant Cloud

    Mr. Lincoln

    Honey Dijon--just because it's different

    Ah, they are all very nice! Your striped one is most attractive. I just remembered I've got a Rosa Mundi waiting for me at my mother's. Have to make room for her somewhere come spring!
