I recently bought 2 climbing rose bushes from Home Depot. (Don Juan) I kept them inside and they were doing GREAT, just sprouting all over......then I read that the problem with the 'warehouse roses' is that they grow to much in the warm house before you can put them outside. I realized that was exactly what mine was doing. SO... last weekend I got my dh to amend my clay and plant my rose bushes in the ground. I couldn't even start to dig that concrete (ummm clay..) myself. They look pretty sad right now but I'm watering them daily. Anybody got suggestions?
