My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Wintering my container roses.

18 years ago

A friend gave me two large containers with mini-roses this summer when she moved. They are blooming beautifully and I'd hate to lose them next year.

Will they survive the winter here in CT (zone 5b)? What can I do to save them for next year? I don't have anywhere indoors to keep them, other than an unheated shed.
