Best Time to Plant Roses: A Seasonal Guide
Timing is key when planting roses to ensure they establish strong roots and thrive in your garden. The ideal planting time depends on whether you are planting bare root roses or potted roses.
When to Plant Bare Root Roses
🌱 Best Temperature: Between 40-60°F (5-15°C)
📅 Best Planting Season: Late winter to early spring (or fall in mild climates)
• Bare root roses should be planted when the ground is not frozen or waterlogged.
• Planting in early spring allows the roots to establish before summer heat, giving the plant a strong start.
• In warmer regions, fall planting can also be successful, allowing roots to settle before winter.
When to Plant Potted Roses
📅 Best Planting Season: April to October
• Potted roses can be planted throughout the growing season, as long as they are well-watered during warm weather.
• Unlike bare root roses, potted roses already have an established root system, making them more adaptable to planting at different times of the year.
