Every bare root rose I have ever bought has been planted straight into the ground. You dont get the transplant shock like you do from container roses. And to me bare root roses planted into the ground grow better and establish faster than planting a container rose into the ground. 98% of my roses are in ground. Only ones I have in pots are old garden Roses I got as bands from Burlington. And DA bare root roses grow a lot faster for me than potted then into ground.
