Mme Isaac Perierre

Yolande de Aragon

Chrysler Imperial--mind, I don't recommend the bush, but if it is heavy fragrance you want, you will love CI

Crimson Glory

Gertrude Jekyll, AKA Galloping Gert, be prepared to do severe pruning on this one.

I understand 'Tiffany' has a strong fragrance. I keep buying it in body bags which keep being mislabeled. 'Tiffany' would likely not survive a NY State winter, so it makes sense for me to grow is as a body bag annual. I believe A Reverence for Roses carries it.

Nastarana - if memory serves you are in the Utica, NY area? If so, I do believe Tiffany will survive your winter unless you don't winter protect at all. She has survived my Zone 5b Chicago area winter twice now - and compared to you, we have much less snow and colder temperatures. Tiffany is one of my favorites and while it is fragrant, it probably falls a little shy of being "strong" in that regard. Great rose for me however.

I grew up 25 miles east of Rochester close to Lake Ontario.

Graham Stuart Thomas wrote a bit about fragrance in his Rose Book. He wrote “…’Mme Abel Chatenay’ stands apart from all roses for its intense piercing fragrance.” When I think of all the roses he must have stuck his nose into in 80+ years, that appears to me as a top recommendation. Available from Burling Leong.

Pope John Paul has won the public-vote Most Fragrant Rose at an Adelaide Rose Show.
Nahema is highly-rated, if you want a climber.
(I haven't grown them because I don't have room for modern roses.)

I was going to suggest 'Diamond Jubilee' if you want a buff/yellow/apricot rose.

Regarding 'Pope John Paul II' - every time I see it at a nursery I make a point of smelling it because of its reputation for fragrance but each time I'm disappointed with its barely-there generic scent - for me at least.

Hello, I had a Melody Parfumee rose for many years here in Kansas City but lost it in the bad 2015 winter.

I am wondering why it is so hard to find now in 2022 because it was such a
fantastic rose for me.

I have tried searching; I contacted Jackson Perkins where I first got it; they no longer sell it.

I know it is patented but I can't imagine this has been discontinued...

Anyone have any ideas as to why this happens? Or where I can get one? Thank you

If you click on Plants / Search in the left menu, then type in the rose's name and go to its page, you will find a Buy From button on the top right. There are several nurseries listing it in the US.

If you mean Rainbow Sorbet, open the page for that rose, and look in BUY FROM (top right). There are many nurseries carrying this rose.
