Laurie, thank you!

They are budding and will have flowers in a week or so

☺

Great job. Wondering if they will be healthy. I think roses bought as plants (for planting out in a garden) are normally grafted in maybe "wild rose " stock cause it has stronger roots.

I could believe it, sure.

Here they are as of yesterday

They look great, think they slowed down their growing.
Also, they can be wiggled a bit because of the fact that the "bush" is just the stem, how long do you think it will take to become thicker, or more pronounced

fixpix- I am no expert, not even halfway. But I bought an "Own-root" cutting grown rose from Heirloom roses this year. I had problems with grafted roses, I hated the suckers from below the graft, and sometimes they did not seem too vigorous. Here is a link to Heirloom Roses website where they explain what they do and why. My plant is growing great.
