Default a rose for a New Hampshire location

Well, Gail, since you have had no bites, I'll go ahead and state the
obvious. How about one of the Buck or Explorer roses well known for
surviving tough winters?

Also, this site:

suggests that many of the hybrid teas and other modern roses may be grown
there. Don't know about winter protection, but you sure could contact the
owner and ask.

Good luck.
