I have just started a new flower bed in hot, humid, southern louisiana and I'm looking for suggestions for 6 - 8 roses. I have one for sure that I want which I grew before and that is Belinda's Dream. I'm looking for smaller bushes with big smelly flowers for cutting. Would prefer no spray or low maintenance types.

Also I will probably have to mail order potted plants. I remember Chamblees, Roses Unlimited, and ARE as suppliers, have others come around?

I just bought Belinda's Dream from Witherspoon Roses in NC. A beautiful plant! Check their website....................

I'm not in your zone, but thought I'd mention Souvenir de la Malmaison. It's a happy bloomer.

I would also suggest Souvenir de Malmaison. I live in hot humid Florida and it does very well for me.

Take a quick look at K&M Roses. Everything they sell will go nuts in your area.
