                Ooooo a rose nursery, that's not going to do your bank balance any good Woo. :)

                I think my over all favourite rose has to be 'Lucky!' It remained disease free and always gave a good display of lilac/pink flowers. It's a tall shrub with a good spread too.

                I didn't bother underplanting my roses as it would have made it difficult to replenish the soil with compost. For ground cover I would have considered Aubrieta having a choice of colours, or thyme, but that is limited to pink. Most rockery plants are low growing and create ground cover.

                        Woo they're looking good. You could plant annual lobelia or a dwarf marigolds.

                          Good morning @Logan yes I did think of putting some Tagetes in amonst them and I might just plant a few Alliums which repel aphids, weevils, borers, and moles and can prevent them getting blackspot so they say:smile:

                            Good evening @wiseowl I've heard that garlic can stop black spot, or a thick mulch.

                              Good evening @Logan I'm not sure anything can stop it only the weather if its hot and humid and add to that rain then Blackspot will prevail all we can do is cut down the odds of getting it,and removing the soil at the base of our Roses where the spores can lie dormant over Winter and never water our roses from the top only at the base:smile:
