Am I asking to much?

I have no roses in my yard. But now that we are redoing our front porch, I will have a trellis on either side that are begging for climbing roses. I would prefer pink, disease resistance, repeat bloomer, and very fragrant. Is is crazy to think I can have all those things in one rose?

How about one of the lovely David Austin climbers? Try St. Swithun or Strawberry Hill or James Galway or Wedgwood Rose? Check them out at the David Austin (you can google it) or at helpmefind.com -- very helpful site with lots of photos.
