Anyone grow a fragrant red rose?

14 years ago

Hello, All

I am on a quest for a friend. She wants a red (purply is okay, pink is not) rose with great fragrance that blooms repeatedly and won't get over four feet high and wide. Does such a rose exist for the Deep South? (Oh, and it needs to have reasonably healthy foliage. No spraying.)

Thanks for your help!
