When to Plant a New Rose Bush

I want to plant a few rose bushes in my front garden. Just wondering when the best time of year is for that. I'm in Zone 8.

I would wait for the heat to go down. You should be good by the end of September.

I would wait until the bareroot roses are available later in the year. Bareroot roses are cheaper. If you buy from the catalog companies, they have a good selection of grade 1 roses and they will send it when it is the proper time for planting in your area. They also guarantee the product. Make sure you select and prepare the site in advance.
