That is what colours might clash, Ive 8 hybrid teas on order and have been trying to arrange their planting position before they arrive. I reckon pink wont work with red and planting similar colours together would be naff.
The list is- Fragrant cloud [red] Polar star [white] Blessings [pink] Whiter shade of pale [white] Queen of hearts [red] Audrey Wilcox [pink and red] Elizabeth Harkness [ivory] Scentsation [peach
Planting in a rectangular bed, 2 staggered parallel lines of 4 roses I dont spose i can go wildly wrong or that i could get arrested for appalling lack of colour co-ordination! :laugh:https://www.jacksonsnurseries.co.uk/index.php?dispatch=wishlist.view

With a small number of bushes I would go random. Trying to blend or get a theme is just about impossible.

Write their names on eight scraps of paper. Chuck the paper in the air and plant each rose where its name lands.

I really would not bother. Just make sure they have plenty of organic matter in the hole, bury them to the crown and water them in.
