The white roses are Iceberg and the pink ones are Rouletii. Both are from the Antique Rose Emporium. The pink is an especially prolific bloomer and has a delicate fragrance. It grows between our driveway and the front door so we pass it many times a day. The blooms are very small. The red rose was in our garden when we moved here, although it was in the shade and did not bloom much. We moved it to a sunny spot and now it blooms a lot more. The flowers are beautiful but they have no fragrance.

The red one looks a lot like my blaze except that blaze is a climber.
We have gotten a lot of roses from ARE and we are very happy with all of them. We actually drove up to brenham about two years ago and were limited only be what I could fit in the car.
I just planted a climbing Iceberg a few weeks ago and it is doing pretty well. We got that one and a few others from Chamblees which also has nice roses. Their prices are a bit better than ARE.
This one might become a climber too if given a chance. It’s got pretty tall canes wrapped around a kind of trellis thing, but we cut it back pretty severely each winter.
