How cold are they when they are kept in cold storage? Is it near freezing? I don't know. I have had plants Free solid outside Very wetI brought the man in lady frosted and Sarajevo that was at 9° but again not dormant and not be rude. Bare roots

So your vote is, "no problem"?

I once had a blueberry plant sitting in a one gallon pot, didn't think much of it when the first frost of the season had arrived, BUT it plummeted down to -10 C / 14 F and by morning that plastic pot was rock solid bulging out! Later, had placed the thing in the cold storage room for winter and the damage was evident next spring with a good half of the top growth being dead. I would tend to think roses to be somewhat more resilient, though I wouldn't chance on purchasing those you mention of.

I don't even understand what was written! I swear I didn't write that. But I cannot change it.

I have a "coffin rose" that survived in its "coffin" at 19F! I suspect its roots are grown way into the ground by now.

Okay, okay!... I yield! I capitulated and purchased a couple of these froze roses. (They actually had Florentina at that price!) Hopefully I won't have to endure the dreaded customer service line at Wally World...

Which big box store had Florentina? I hope one of ours has it. I could use another one!

Our Walmart had Florentina in bags yesterday and lots of True Bloom roses

The bagged roses were outside uncovered getting rained on. The bags were doing a great job of catching and holding the water. If the roses can survive a hard freeze in bags, I wonder if they can also survive a mild flooding.

Ditto that. It was Walmart in Central TX carrying bareroot bagged Certified Roses (a TX company). ...Frozen and subsequently flooded. I decided if I was going to try any, I needed to commit before any surviving roots drowned after freezing.

Lowes and HD carried heavily waxed Canadian coffin roses from Pan American. The wax creates little greenhouses on the stems and they stew in our sun here. (Not sure if they should be planted or burned as wax torches.) They also charge a few bucks more for the coffin.

HEB is also carrying Certified roses. Theirs are #2 grade, and a little less likely to do well, imho, but had a few nice patented roses as well.

Philipatx, the two coffins I bought the first week of January at HD were from Pan American. The tag said Windmill, but if you turned it over, it said Pan American from Canada. Both heavily waxed. Last year, I got two Gene Boerner coffins from HD from the same vendor the first week of Feb (getting late for us). They were also waxed, but by then, it was already falling off. The larger one survived, but the smaller one didn't. Anyway, with this batch, I very carefully used my garden knife to shave off wax and try to score the rest of it to encourage it to fall off as the stem enlarges. They're both leafing out well. It's been in the 60s for most of Jan, but today it hit mid-80s, so tomorrow I'll have a look at how the wax fared :-o
