Foxgloves and roses always make a wonderful combination.<\/p><\/div>\nOwn-root roses generally come in containers of various sizes.\u00a0 From small specialty nurseries usually in smaller pots called “bands”.<\/p>\nDon’t be intimidated by own-root roses sold in “band pots” as with good care they quickly grow into full sized roses. <\/strong><\/p>\nYou will also occasionally hear that “grafted (or budded” roses establish more quickly in the garden.\u00a0 This isn’t totally true.\u00a0 The reason many people feel this way is because most grafted roses are close to three years old by the time you get them.\u00a0 Many own-root roses are sold when they are less than one year old.\u00a0 But once the own root rose is three years old you can’t tell the difference.<\/p>\nWe strongly encourage you to purchase Garden Roses on their own-roots.\u00a0 In our opinion they make fuller plants.\u00a0 And that is one of the definitions of a Garden Rose.<\/p>\nHere are a few simple rules when planting own-root roses:<\/p>\n\n
If you have experience with roses, it’s okay to plant the band pot straight into the ground.\u00a0 If you are unsure then pot it up into a larger container, let it grow on and then plant it.<\/li>\n
Use a product containing mycorrhizae that you will add to the hole so it comes in contact with the roots.<\/li>\n
Plant the rose about 1″ deeper than the soil level in the pot.\u00a0 This will anchor the rose more securely and prevent “wind rock”, which is when strong winds whip the plant around.<\/li>\n
As with any new planting water in very well after you plant it.<\/li>\n
Remember to mulch!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
