Of course, I don't know your conditions -- so feel free to tell me to shut up ...

But if Duchesse de Brabant is doing well for you -- maybe 'Mme. Joseph Schwartz' would, as well. She's the warm-white sport of Duchess de Brabant.

Another thought -- 'Archduke Charles.' Check HMF for images.

I am in east Texas so we are totally different zones, but two I love are Mrs. B.R. Cant and Mme. Berleley. Just planted Georgetown Tea last year, so looking forward to seeing what it will do this year - it has made a very nice sized bush. Eutin has loads of blooms and is extremely healthy for me here.

Happened to find a photo of Mme. Berkeley taken from last year.

Lordy, Lordy Yes.

I didn't meantion Mme. Berkeley, because she is a real monster of a plant, here. Maybe only 6-+ feet tall, but with at least an 8 ft. spread.

FWIW, there's an "album" of photos on the Gold Coast Heritage Roses Group site which includes several images of 'Mme. Berkeley."

Teas are marginally hardy here. A few people that I know in SE PA/SW NJ have had success with Lady Hillingdon (I did not).

Lily Shohan grew Teas and Chinas for years, in New England, by keeping them in pots, and wheeling them into her house in the winter -- So I know it can be done. I wouldn't do it. I'm far too lazy -- but I can understand why she did. :-)

Thank you Alameda, Jeri and Diana for the suggestion and information! Now, they are all so lovely, and I feel that I have to have more. :)

I do wheel a few camellia into the house and potted roses in the garage for winter. So I am ready to do more heavy lifting. :)

Cheers,
Mark

Mrs. Dudley Cross is beautiful and thornless. I have two to make up for all the thorny roses I grow like another lovely tea, Le Vesuve.

There are some that I love, but I'm not sure they would do well in pots.

Mrs. BR Cant is my favorite, but it gets large. However, it may do well in a large pot.

Lady Hillingdon is more tall than wide for me, so she may do well.

Rosette d'Lizzy is a beautiful bloom and it's not that large in my yard.

Devoneisis is a smaller bush, but very lovely. I'm not sure if it's a tea or a noisette, but I think it would do very well in a pot.

Jeri, true, Lily spoke often about caring for her teas. I assumed the OP wanted to keep them outside.
