Hello,

I live in southwest Connecticut and my wife would like us to plant rose bushes in our yard.

Is there a specific type of soil/fertilizer I need in order for the bushes to get off to a good start?

Also, what time of the year (April, May, etc) is a good time to plant them?

Finally, any other useful tips for what I should be looking for when purchasing these bushes would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
