I love roses but have yet to plant any since we moved here. I will have to use some of these tips. There were some great ones on here.

I love roses but have yet to plant any since we moved here. I will have to use some of these tips. There were some great ones on here.

When I moved to my house 20 years ago, I was a beginner gardener and bought roses and fruit trees and shade plants which I liked. I planted them with peat moss mixed into the soil and watered almost daily and most of them grew very happily.

If you have the time and inclination to study growing roses, do so. But if you want a head start, just plant a couple. My favorites are always ever-blooming perennial roses which grow over a rose arbor. Enjoy!
