Although yellow roses aren't my favorite (only 3 of my 30+ roses are yellow), I do enjoy their bright and cheerful color. When I look at them, they give me a different feeling than my pink roses. And I think they would have a better effect grouped together.
In the winter, I think I'm going to move my yellow roses (Julia Child, Golden Celebration and Michelangelo) to the flower bed on the south side of the garage and make it a "yellow and blue/purple" garden by adding blue and purple perennials. This means, I will need to find new homes for my Sophy's Rose, Kimberlina and Winsome. But that's fine with me. You don't find what truly works unless you try things out. I feel that if a rose doesn't work in a particular location, move it until you find a spot you love it in.
I think Sophy's Rose will look fabulous in Golden Celebration's current location (back west garden between both Mary Roses). Mary Rose is a light/medium pink so a deep pinkish red should fit in nicely. Kimberlina could go in Michelangelo's location on the west side of pool.

I got my inspiration from this gorgeous garden. I even have that same trellis in my front garden.
