Mark,
At some point, probably while perusing the Arnold Arboretum library I copied a
short list someone
had compiled of what they considered superior fruting roses. Some of these
appear to be tea rose
varieties:
Roses w/best production of hips:Old Blush, Queen Elizabeth,Paradise,Roger
Lambelin,Rosa eglanteria
(Eglantine).
Charlie Paradise
zone 5 / Massachusetts
