rose plant

Is it ok to keep rose plants inside the house as we really get good sunlight inside ? It is very hot and dry outside. My jasmine is growing well outside but the tomatoes and chillies died off a little after they sprout. My rose plant gets leaves and then suddenly fall off and dry out. pls help

Does your house have an [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sahn]atrium[/url] (also called a "courtyard" or [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sahn]"Sahn"[/url]), a patio open to the sky where the rose is? If so, the rose will probably be fine. If the rose is receiving direct sunlight in the open air, it will be all right (as long as it gets enough hours of sunlight). :)

But if you're planning on the rose getting its sunlight through a window, too many of the sun's helpful rays will be blocked by the glass for the rose to survive long-term, even in Riyadh. :(
