Name: Paul Utah (Zone 5b) Grandchildren are my greatest joy.
I went to one of my favorite nurseries today, the one where I have purchased most of the roses in my garden. I was excited to find that they have a new rose house and were planting roses for this season. Here are some pictures. I will go back regularly and add pictures as the season progresses. The house is 30 by 100...it will hold a lot of roses. They were pruning the stems and the roots. The roots that were left fit nicely into the containers. I have bought roses in containers before that did not have the roots pruned but rather shoved into the bottom of the pot...not a good thing
the crew planting roses
plants before they have been pruned...top and roots
keeping the roots moist...look at that root system
