    For some ideas get the classic roses(Peter Beales) catalogue as it clearly states those that will tolerate less than ideal positions. I found it very helpful when plannng mine in this new garden, with difficult soil and shade.

    Thanks, I've ordered it. What an amazing collection. I did a brief search and was glad to see the rugosa group in those suitable for poorer soils.

    I've seen quoted 4 hours sun a ady,but if you have somewhere North facing they maybe won't get thta. There are rtoses that are shade tolerant, I have just planted aclimber to see how it fairs.
