Is there an advantage to planting roses in Spring?
Yes, but it really depends on your climate. Spring is the time of year when plants awake from dormancy and begin to grow. It is the time of year when we are most tired of winter and get the urge to plant things and see plants begin to grow. Roses planted in spring begin growing within 2 to 3 weeks after planting and about 6 to 8 weeks more they will be in bloom. Spring planted roses have all summer to become established and are better able to go through the winter without injury.
