We're in about our 5th week of very high temperatures and intense humidity. I'm actually stunned that some of my roses are seemingly unphased by the weather and doing extremely well.
The following ones have done superbly even given the rotten weather:
La Sevilana
Cl, Dream Weaver
Cl. Pinata
Icebergs (of course !) (White, pink and burgundy)
Sunflare
Bill Warriner
Scarlet Meidiland
Livin' Easy

These next ones absolutely DESPISE this weather and it shows !
Cl. Polka
Cl. Colette
Pat Austin (The buds explode and fry in one day) :(
Janice Kellogg
Queen Elizabeth
Fame
Love and Peace
Chihuly

I recently bought a small "Cornellia" and have it in the shade since it appears it aint too thrilled with the weather, either..
