Bred by Armstrong and Swim in 1969; mild fragrance, 23 to 28 petals &#8211; repeats occasionally later in season.  Blooms are a red blend &#8211; but I&#8217;ve noted that they range from a combination of orange, pink, red, yellow and white mixed in each flower.  It&#8217;s apparently a very thorny rose with average disease resistance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Climbing Iceberg<\/strong> &#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Bred in the UK by Cant in 1968, White semi-double blooms with 9 to 16 petals, blooms in flushes throughout the season; Grows to a height of 8 to 15 feet  and is hardy in zones 4 to 9. May or may not have a mild fragrance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chicago Peace<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A hybrid Tea originally bred in the USA by Graeme Johnston in 1962. Blooms are large- up to 6 inches, and are a pink blend with 45 to 60 petals. The blooms have a very double form.  This rose blooms in flushes throughout the season and grows to a height of 4.5 feet to 6.5 feet.  Mild fragrance.   Susceptible to blackspot, requires winter protection.   Helpmefind -Roses says it&#8217;s only hardy to zone 7 but they often state high zones for hybrid teas.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Climbing Westerland<\/strong>  &#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Kordes bred rose, 1969, scented &#8211; strong rose, spicy fragrance; Apricot &amp; apricot blend, Semi-double (9-16 petals) bloom form.  Blooms in flushes throughout the season.   Grows to a height of 4 to 12 feet by 4 feet wide and is disease resistant.  No hardiness info but I think it&#8217;s hardy to at least zone 5a.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Double Delight<\/strong> &#8211;<\/p><!--CusAds-->\n<p>This is a hybrid tea that was first bred in 1977 in the US by Herbert C. Swim.  The blooms are a red blend with red and white within, and red edges.  It has a spicy fragrance.  The average diameter of the flowers are 5 inches and each bloom is double with 17 to 25 petals.  Blooms in flushes throughout the season.   Grows to a height of 3 feet to 5 feet and a width of 2 feet to 5 feet.  This rose is apparently susceptible to mildew and requires winter protection.<\/p>\n<p>Wow, would you look at that?  Every rose that I purchased was first bred in the 60&#8217;s.  Isn&#8217;t that odd?  All of them, with the exception of the Climbing Iceberg are multicolored roses.  However, I&#8217;ve noticed that my standard iceberg often gets a pink blend in the petals as they age.<\/p>\n<p>I really wanted to replace my Love and Peace but I couldn&#8217;t find one. That&#8217;s why I got the Chicago Peace.  I&#8217;m hoping that it really does turn out to be as hardy as Love and Peace was because I didn&#8217;t have any problems with that rose. I think it&#8217;s demise was due to a fungal infection. It actually got a fungus like woody growth near the base of the rose.   I think I&#8217;ll have to remove all the soil in that portion of the garden where Love and Peace was before I plant it&#8217;s replacement as I fear that the fungus or virus might still be in the soil.    Anyone familiar with the problem that I&#8217;m discussing?<\/p>\n<p>As you can see I&#8217;ve chosen some roses that get quite large and I have a small jam packed garden.  This should be fun!<\/p>\n<p>Obviously I&#8217;m not a rose novice but if anyone has experience with any of the roses that I&#8217;ve listed above I&#8217;d love it if you&#8217;d tell me how the rose faired in your care.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m particularly interested in how these roses do in cold zones.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m in Toronto and it&#8217;s classed as a Canadian Zone 6b or a US zone 5b.    I know I&#8217;ll have to winter protect the hybrid teas I purchased but I&#8217;ve been very successful with roses that are not supposed to be all that hardy &#8211; like Just Joey, and Valencia for example, so I&#8217;m not too worried.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds--><p>I do prefer to buy roses that are hardy to a plain Jane zone 5 or lower though as it gives them more of a chance of survival if we have a really harsh winter.<\/p>\n<div class=\"912745ff53504cd4aef8ff3ef7b9aa95\" data-index=\"9\" style=\"float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<br\/> <br\/>\r\n<div align=\"center\">\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\r\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-3375789278566919\";\r\n\/* gardengrows_underpost_300x250 *\/\r\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"0957462354\";\r\ngoogle_ad_width = 300;\r\ngoogle_ad_height = 250;\r\n\/\/-->\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\r\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\r\n<\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<br\/>\r\n<br\/>\r\n\r\n<?php if ( is_search() || is_single() || is_page() || is_paged() || is_category() || is_archive() ) { ?>\r\n<div align=\"center\">\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\r\nch_client = \"dragonden\";\r\nch_type = \"mpu\";\r\nch_width = 468;\r\nch_height = 250;\r\nch_color_bg = \"FFFFFF\";\r\nch_color_title = \"FF9B00\";\r\nch_color_text = \"333333\";\r\nch_non_contextual = 4;\r\nch_vertical =\"premium\";\r\nch_sid = \"gardengrows_betweenposts\";\r\nvar ch_queries = new Array( );\r\nvar ch_selected=Math.floor((Math.random()*ch_queries.length));\r\nif ( ch_selected < ch_queries.length ) {\r\nch_query = ch_queries[ch_selected];\r\n}\r\n\/\/--><\/script>\r\n<script  src=\"http:\/\/scripts.chitika.net\/eminimalls\/amm.js\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br\/><\/div>\r\n<?php } ?>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Does anyone grow any of these roses?
