1) What are those tall (human height) cane like plants
with the delicious smelling white flowers right to the
left as you drive into Zilker Garden's making a right
after the gate?

Don't know.

2) One of my roses is looking badly chlorotic (yellow
leaves with dark veins). What natural potion could I use
to get it a dark green again?

TIA! Gae

Horticultural molasses, sold in gallon bottles at Lowes for about 8 dollars.
Very high in iron. Also, I fertilize my one rose using Ladybug Brand 8-2-4.
That's in addition to the heavy use of compost as a top dress, and I also dig
some around into the soil at the root zone a few times a year. Roses do not
have great root systems. They do benefit from the use of mycorrhizae, which
they sell at many good garden centers.
