Rose in a pot - winter

[FippertyGibbett]

I was given a rose in a ceramic pot earlier this year, and it had 3 flowers on it o dr the summer. Now it is completely bare, what do I do with it over winter ?
Put it in the garage to keep frost off, or leave it out.

Is planted in an inner pot inside the ceramic one?

No, should it be ?

Are there drainage holes in the bottom of the pot? Usually ceramic ones are decorative and without holes, so you don't get water all over your coffee table when you water it.

Roses are hardy, but you can't leave it outside in a pot with no drainage holes, as it will fill up with water and the plant will drown. If there are no holes, then either plant it in a different container that does have holes, or plant it in the ground.

Keep it somewhere cool, not the garage it will need some light, it’s also worth repotting it into a slightly larger pot.

It’s an outside pot, yes to drainage holes.
Is it ok in the garage over winter then ? Should I still water it, is it ok with little light ?

I was thinking the same about my potted rose. Thanks all.

I wouldn’t, all my roses stay outside over winter, unless you’re very far north I think we’re in for a mild winter so outside, plenty of drainage holes.

Ok, thanks.

Is it ok in the garage over winter then? Not enough light in the garage. It will try to grow, but make very long, weak leggy growth in its attempt to get at the light, and be vulnerable to pest attach.
