Planting

Potted roses can be planted all year round. The only time we recommend that you don't plant is when the ground is frozen, waterlogged or in drought conditions.

Follow these simple steps to give your potted climbing rose the best possible start. You can plant potted roses year-round, except when the ground is frozen, waterlogged, or affected by drought.

Allowing the right amount of space between roses is one of the quiet secrets of a well-balanced garden. When shrub roses are planted too closely together, the border can quickly feel crowded as the plants mature. Planted too far apart, however, and the planting may appear sparse, with bare patches of soil between each rose.
