    :-D I am looking for old fashioned roses to grow along my fence line. The bigger the better. I really don't mind if they only bloom once a year, but would love a couple of re-bloomers in the mix. I have been living in New Mexico and had a wonderful Rosa Glauca. Would love to have it in my yard here but afraid the humidity would kill it.

    Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks, Calamity

    Hi Calamity,

    There is a comprehensive collection of roses in this search tool
    http://www.everyrose.com/everyrose/comm ... arch.lasso
    Just enter your zone ("8b" I believe) into the zone box and have a look at the selection returned. You may find something to your requirements :)
