I just planted Henry Fonda (I succumbed to the true yellow). It is in
bloom and loaded with buds -- long single stems. Looks like a florist's
rose. I do not know how fragrant it will be. Perhaps a slight
fragrance, but the yellow is spectacular and I can tell it will be a
good cutting rose.

Sunsprite - not a cutting rose for me. I had Sunsprite in a half barrel
at my former home and loved it. Very bushy, wide as it was tall. It
filled the whole half barrel and was in constant bloom.

Isn't Sunsprite a floribunda? I am away from my rose books, but I
remember that the roses were not singles, so I did not cut for vases. I
just let it bloom and bloom.

Sunsprite - excellent. Henry Fonda - I will know after this season.
