My brother bought my mother some miniature roses years ago. Those are roses that are not more than an inch in diameter when in bloom. She was living in a house at that time here in Arizona. When she sold the house she did not want to leave her roses. She dug them up and took them to my grandmother in California, near Santa Rosa area. The next year she went to visit my grandmother and the roses were about 3 inches in diameter in bloom. This just goes to show you that roses can floragish if they're taken care of.
