Rose Grades
Plants that are sold as own-root are not graded, so there is no real clear-cut standard. Grade 1 1/2 roses have two strong canes and with care will catch up to Grade 1 roses.

History of Roses
Roses have a long and colorful history. After the fall of the Roman Empire, the popularity of roses seemed to rise and fall depending on gardening trends of the time.

Planting Roses
In northern growing areas, roses can be planted as soon as soil can be worked in the spring. If the rose is planted in the spring and is still dormant, simply take it out of the box and treat it like a bare-root rose.

Selecting Rose Plants
Of prime importance is selecting varieties that will fit into a garden based upon size of the garden, local growing conditions, and varieties that the grower likes and feels will fit into his plan. Rose plants can be purchased locally through garden centers and other retail outlets or by mail.
