Transplanting Rosebushes
Flowers, Lawn and Garden, Video by Danny Lipford
Transplanting roses is a little trickier than transplanting other plant varieties. Start by thoroughly soaking the rose bush so that you can remove it without disturbing any of the roots. After digging the large receiving hole, mix potting soil with the existing soil. Make a mound of amended soil, spread out the roots and set the plant on the mound. Be sure that the mound is tall enough to hold the crown at the same level it was originally. Now backfill the hole with amended soil and flood it with water.
