Roses.

I have used.  Modern Roses X1,  The world encyclopedia of Roses.  Sadly that bought me finally to roses introduced to the year, 2000.  I have no idea if in time a new and updated version will be available.  So, to keep myself amused.  I would like to attempt to collect names of as many as possible roses introduced starting with the year 2001.  Just the names please.  I will research from there.  Should YOU have a long list, and so as not to clog up the forum, I will gladly provide my email address via a private message.  Many thanks in advance.

    Helpmefind (rose database created by volunteers/enthusiasts) lists over 11500 roses introduced after 2000. Some of these are duplicate listings (more names for one rose), some are florist roses or not fully available, but I would say it is still going to be several thousands of roses.
    If I limit it to after 2000 in the United Kingdom (which is unreliable in helpmefind search, because not all introduction countries are always listed), it is 1585 roses and there shouldn't be too many duplicate names, so maybe something between 500 and 1000 roses just for the UK.
    I think you would need to have paid membership on helpmefind to do this type of search but I am not sure.

    Thank you very much.  I will have a look.  I always thought you needed the name of a rose to be able to search, and information would suggest where you can obtain that rose.  Many thanks.
