Added Rosa 'Rhapsody In Blue' (Shrub) to your wishlist.
I love this for its cardinal purple colouring when it freshly opens, but maybe better still are the flowers as they fade, becoming a sort of washed-out purple linen.

Care Tips
Before planting bare root roses, soak roots in a bucket of water for at least 2 hours. Dig a hole that will accommodate the root ball comfortably and, to aid establishment, sprinkle mycorrhizal fungi (Rootgrow) into the base before planting.
