Hi Emma -
Sorry for the delay and such - there have been a lot of spamming
going on by an outsider. I think most people are exhausted with it.
We have no issue on spelling - world wide English is a bit different.
Local spell checker enabled helps.
Roses in pots. I'd hope you have a Crystal palace behind your main
building,
but few of us are opulent like that!
If you have a basement or like area - wintering there would be good.
Some roses take cold nicely but not ice or snow. So the climate and rose
is im****tant.
We on this side of the pond often have miniatures growing in the home.
You might consider that if you live in a skyscraper building and have
them out on the deck. Trim back and bring in. Less light to sup****t
a large plant.
Some with roses outdoors heap leaves over the roses and before doing
that pack a hill abound the base with bark rich soil for insulation.
That is for cold snaps, ice and snow.
I live in the sub tropical (almost) area It has been 97 degrees already
today.
In one apartment we lived in years ago, we were two of us and two large
bathrooms. One bathroom was for our wintering plants and sometimes the
young
sprouts of garden plants got a fog bath from the shower with no one there.
Just
to fill the room with steam. [rain forest mode]
In doors can be tough on outdoor plants. Air conditioned spaces dry out
plants.
Hope additional inputs come in from the UK or Canada having more your
weather type.
