I like most of the tried & true oldies. Most doubles do not bloom enough and often look hideous here. So after 6 or so years of growing & trying different brugs (I currently grow about 30 now) these are my favorite for number of blooms, pest resistance, vigor and scent:

Maya
Star Dancer
Charles Grimaldi
Dr Seuss (but bugs love it)
Cypress Gardens
Versi's Peach & Orange
Golden Lady
Valley Misty Pink
Donna's Monster White

Not as heavy scented, but vigorous bloomers:
Pink Beauty
Kyles Pink

Due to the drought here, many of mine just have not bloomed well. Normally I'd have Gypsy Queen, Island Girl & Velvet Rose on my list.

Shown L to R: Dr Seuss, Island Girl, Kyles Pink last year
