Time to Move? Transplanting your Roses

February 26, 2025

Every once in a while, I may make a slight miscalculation when planting my roses.

Fall is a great time to plant roses.  I always say, if it wasn't for fall planting, I wouldn't have any roses in my own garden.  While that may be a be an occupational hazard, given what spring in the nursery typically looks like, fall really is a great time for roses.   To begin with, fall's cooler temperatures and increased moisture reduce transplant stress on new roses.  Even better, the combination with lower light intensity and still warm soil temperatures make [Read More]
