Nope, they don't. They usually can't get enough direct sunlight or humidity. Another major problem is spider mites, which show up as a result of the lack of humidity. You can try with grow lights and use a pebble tray (shallow tray with pebbles, fill with water to almost cover the pebbles, put pot on top of pebbles) for the humidity.

See the link below (you posted a response there a long time ago!) and scroll down to oldroser's response. I know oldroser grows some plants inside, especially during the winter. Also do a search for "indoor" here and you will get links to other threads. Good luck.

Here is a link that might be useful: Why can't a Mini Parade Rose be grown indoors?

Diane,, you are absolutely right, I totally forgot about it. Thank you for the link.

Nat,
It CAN be done, but its a lot of work to keep them healthy indoors, and they get leggy and bloom only occasionally. However, your choice of varieties to try indoors makes a big difference. Older varieties like 'Cinderella' and 'Tom Thumb' are better candidates for a bright windowsill than most of the larger modern Minis.

Regards,
Paul

Thank you Paul. I will keep in mind these two varieties.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I wouldn't recommend it...I'm trying right now to keep one I received a month ago alive. It's hanging in there but through much trial and error. If it lives through the winter I'm moving it outside. Good luck!

I've been growing them indoors for many years but don't think they are the easiest pot plants. They will bloom almost continuously in a sunny window but some are faster repeaters than others. One of my best is Sweet Diana. I've also had nice blooms from Vista, Giggles, and Merlot. Controlling spider mite is a must. A small plant can have the pot surface wrapped in a paper towel and be upended in the kitchen sink and the under side of the leaves sprayed with cold water from that spray hose which I've never found another use for. The water has to be cold and the treatment should be repeated two or three times a week.
Since I have big roses as well, I use Avid, twice before bringing them in. That generally takes care of the problem until March or so when they can go out on a warm day and be sprayed again.
Many years ago I grew a very small mini named Cutie. It was on an eastern window sill in my office and bloomed there for years - tiny, pink, shapeless flowers. Wish I could find it again. One of Ralph Moore's early introductions and probably now lost.
