Good luck with them! I have a few roses that were on my place when I bought it. They had survived the most awful neglect and yet responded very well to transplanting and pruning. They have also been largely maintenance-free, apart from hard pruning once a year and occasional fertiliser
I adore the words, largely maintenance free! So many things are not, with the exception of my hyssop bushes, which only require pruning once a year, so I am happy that the roses will be joining that club.:)
Glad to hear yours are doing well, they sound like they have brought you some enjoyment!
