Rose TreesPatioTree Rose and Weeping Tree Roses
Rose Trees are created by carefully grafting hardy rootstock to a long stem, that is in turn, grafted to a rose bush at the top of the stem. They make an elegant centerpiece in a small garden, or a very formal effect in a larger garden, when planted in groups of 3 or 4 spaced 2 feet apart. Planted along the garden path, they add an air of Elegance! They are also quite lovely on the Patio, or Deck. Because of their shape and structure,a Patio Tree Rose, or Rose Trees, are very susceptible to wind and ice damage. Although you can grow them in colder parts of the country, it is recommended that you plant them in containers, and bring them in for winter protection, or bury them for the winter.

Winter Care for Tree RosesIn zones 6 an warmer,you should trim the top way back, wrap the entire tree in an insulating material purchased at any garden center. Then wrap the whole thing in burlap, and secure with duct tape. This will keep your Rose tree secure until Spring.
If you live in a colder zone (lower than 6) you should grow your tree rose in containers. To keep it alive through the winter: In fall, let it go dormant. Take it in in early October- before it freezes. Place it in a cool place, that doesnt get much light. (A cool basement is ideal) Do Not put it in a heated area with a lot of light! Do Not try to keep it inside the house or in a place that freezes ( an unheated porch) Ocassionally water it, keeping it moist, but not overly wet. The idea is to not let it completely dry out.
In March, very gradually bring it into a warmer, brighter area In April- put it back in the garden. After the first year, it may need repotting,
