Blanc Double de Coubert is the most truly white rose I have grown. It's so white I can't take a good picture of it. It is reliably hardy in zone 2 (Winnipeg, MB) but doesn't grow particularly quickly. Mine is around 6 years old and hasn't produced any suckers.

Garden Party is an excellent rose in my garden.  It gets a bit of Powdery Mildew on new growth when the weather is wet.  I would only add that the fragrance is more than "mild" as described by HMF.  It is a medium-to-strong fragrance for me.

Mine has a strong fragrance as well. One of the most delicious roses in my garden. I love to cut these and bring them inside.

Polstjarnan is 100% cane hardy in zone 2b, it is the most reliably cane hardy climber I know of. It gets very large, quite quickly. It has a light, pleasant scent.

This rose is cane hardy below the snow line in zone 2b, Manitoba Canada. It doesn't get tall here, usually maximum 18" or so, but it blooms a lot. Mine was purchased own-root and after 5 years has started to sucker quite a lot up to 2' away. Half my plant has reverted back to solid pink but I like it both ways.
