I have bought a purple climbing rose, just because I don't see purple roses round where I live and I thought it would look nice.
When should I plant it out?
Should I pot it up and wait until the weather is warmer, or plant it straight outside?
Any advice welcome
Thanks in advance.

It is bare root, so will pop it in a pot, shoidl I put it outside or bring it in until February?

And don't forget to plant it deep when you do plant it out. Final soil level a couple of inches above the graft union. Worthy

I would plant it anytime from now when the soil is not frozen or waterlogged. If the soil freezes again later, remember to re-tread around it in spring in case it has lifted a bit. Water it all summer long too.

I'd pop it in a pot until mid feb. I gather it is bare root or is it already in a pot. If it is just leave it and make sure it doesnt dry out.
