The name doesn't sound entirely hopeful and they might look half dead when they arrive but if you plant bare root roses now you'll soon discover it's an affordable and easy way to add lots of these beautiful blooms to your garden, as well as being the planet-friendly option because it's plastic free.
Bare root roses are dug from the ground while dormant. They are sold without soil or foliage, and packed to prevent the roots drying out before being sent out to you. Despite at first resembling a bunch of twigs they tend to be good quality, with stronger roots than pot-grown varieties. In other good news they are cheaper than roses sold in containers too.
