How to Transplant a Rose Bush

When you're moving a large rose in the landscape, your success will depend on reducing the effects of transplant shock. Transplant shock is characterized by die-back and wilting after the move, and is the result of damage to the roots and the sudden change of growing environment. In this video, I discuss the right time of year to move a rose, whether to trim back top-growth, and how (if) you should amend the soil in the planting hole.

Here's the link I mentioned about pruning top-growth at transplant time: https://s3.wp.wsu.edu/uploads/sites/403/2015/03/transplant-pruning.pdf
