National Plant Network's grower approved selections take the guesswork out of gardening. Bare root roses arrive dormant and leafless, consisting of a healthy root system and sturdy canes that are ready to establish quickly once planted. Bare root roses are easy to plant, just soak in water for several hours to rehydrate the roots, then plant into well prepared soil with good drainage and plenty of sunlight. After planting, new growth typically begins within a few weeks as temperatures warm, followed by leaf development and strong cane growth. As the plant becomes established, classic blooms emerge, delivering timeless color and fragrance in the garden. Bare root roses offer an economical and reliable way to enjoy vigorous plants, strong root development, and beautiful seasonal flowering.
