I put in a new bed for my roses and transplanted 15 roses last week They are doing well, but now we are supposed to get 30 deg. weather tonight. Should I cover them or will they be OK?? I would hate to lose them now! Quote \| Reply \| Report

If I were you, I would throw a blanket over them. We had a hard frost in May last year and I thought I about lost 4 of my hybrid teas. They took it really hard and I had to cut them back and start over. I would rather be safe than sorry ! Quote \| Reply \| Report
