Is Now a Good Time to Plant?

Yes! Fall is one of the best times to plant!

Landscaping experts often recommend planting in fall instead of waiting until spring. Here’s why:

  • Cooler weather puts less stress on newly planted trees and shrubs.
  • Fall soil is still warm, which helps roots grow and get established.
  • Cooler temperatures mean less water is lost through the leaves, making it easier for plants to stay hydrated.
  • Even after top growth slows for winter, roots continue developing below ground.
  • Fall weather often brings more rain and less heat, making new plants easier to care for.
  • By spring, your plants already have a head start. Their established roots can support strong new leaves, branches, and flowers.
  • Trees planted in spring must establish their roots while also dealing with rising temperatures and summer heat.

Plant this fall, and your trees can spend the cooler months getting settled instead of waiting until spring to get started!

Planting your Winner's Circle™ Climbing Rose

Planting Instructions for Winner's Circle Climbing Rose

  1. Choosing the Right Location: Plant Winner's Circle Climbing Rose in USDA zones 4 through 10 in full sun, with at least six hours of direct sunlight daily. Choose a spot with good air circulation beside a sturdy trellis, fence, arbor, or pergola. This fast grower reaches 10 to 12 feet tall with a spread of about 3 to 4 feet.
  2. Soil Preparation: Give it well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. Work compost into a wide planting area to improve fertility and drainage, and avoid spots where water stands after rain.
  3. Planting: Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep, setting the top of the root ball level with the soil. Plant about 12 to 18 inches out from a wall or fence so rain can reach the roots and air can move around the canes, then angle the canes toward the support.
  4. Mulching and First Watering: Water deeply after planting to settle the soil. Spread 2 to 3 inches of mulch over the root zone to hold moisture and moderate soil temperature, keeping it a few inches from the canes.

Care Instructions

  1. Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist, especially in hot or dry conditions. Water deeply at the base rather than overhead so the foliage stays dry, which supports this rose's natural disease resistance.
  2. Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced rose fertilizer in early spring and again in midsummer for the best results. Water the fertilizer in well after each application, and skip late-season feeding so growth can harden off before winter.
  3. Pest and Disease Monitoring: Winner's Circle resists common rose diseases such as black spot and mildew. Still, check the leaves regularly for aphids and Japanese beetles in summer and remove them early. Good sun and airflow keep the leaves clean.

Maintenance and Long-Term Care

  1. Pruning and Training: Minimal pruning is needed. In early spring, remove dead or weak canes and train new growth onto its support. Tie canes loosely with soft ties and angle them sideways rather than straight up to encourage more flowering side shoots. Avoid cutting the main structural canes heavily.
  2. Winter Care: This rose is extremely cold hardy, but a layer of mulch at the base provides extra insulation during harsh winters. Check ties in late fall so canes are secure against winter wind and snow.
  3. Growing in Containers: It can grow in a large pot when trained on a sturdy trellis, perfect for patios and balconies. Use a container with drainage holes and rich potting mix, and water more often than for in-ground roses.

Additional Tips for Growing Winner's Circle Climbing Rose

  1. No Deadheading Needed: Clusters of vibrant red flowers bloom from late spring to frost, and the self-cleaning petals drop on their own. Leaving spent flowers in place lets decorative red rose hips form for winter.
  2. Four-Season Interest: Glossy green leaves turn burgundy in fall, followed by bright red hips in winter that provide food for birds. Summer blooms also attract butterflies and bees.

Beware- not all Winner's Circle™ Climbing Roses are the same.

Be sure to get superior climbing roses, grown by experts.

Better Roots Make Stronger Plants: Some nurseries send you "bare root" climbing roses to save on shipping. Even worse, others have started digging them right out of the ground before shipping. This causes major transplant shock and long-term damage. We send you Winner's Circle™ Climbing Roses in soil-filled containers- ensuring a well-developed root system that will explode with growth and blooms!

Healthy Plants: We've seen other nurseries grow tall climbing roses in tiny pots to save on shipping. This leads to a "root bound" rose, where the roots have outgrown their pot- they cannot absorb water and nutrients. They quickly dry out during shipment, leading to an unhealthy rose.

Not all plants are created equal

The Difference Is in the Roots

Every plant we ship has grown in a nursery container with its roots protected, so it arrives healthy, established and ready to thrive in your yard.

A full, branched Nationwide Plants tree in a nursery pot next to a thin bare-root tree with exposed roots Ours: container grown Theirs: bare root
Nationwide Plants Other Nurseries
How it's grown Grown in a nursery container, roots protected the whole time Pulled or dug from the field, tearing fragile roots
How it arrives Arrives in its pot with soil intact Arrives bare root, exposed and drying out
Before shipping Growing naturally until it ships Held dormant in a cooler, then shocked by a hot shipping box
Root health Strong, well-developed roots with room to grow Crammed into a small pot until it's root bound
Height Measured from the top of the soil Often includes the pot and roots
After planting Settles in quickly with less transplant shock Arrives stressed and can take years to recover, if it does

The height you see is the height you plant.

We measure every plant from the top of the soil, not the bottom of the pot. Many nurseries include the pot and roots, so a "5–6 ft." tree from them might stand only 4 ft. tall once it's planted.

Comparisons reflect common practices across the online plant industry, not any single company.

Honest Measurements: Some nurseries measure plants including the pot and roots, so the plant you receive is much smaller than you expected. We measure all of our plants from the soil line, so the height you see is what you can expect after planting.

From our nursery to your door

How We Ship Your Plants

Every order is hand-selected, watered and carefully packed so it arrives healthy and ready to plant. Here's what happens after you place your order.

  1. Hand-Picked for You

    Our team selects the best plant available for your order. For privacy trees, that's the tallest and fullest. For fruit trees, it's the best branched.

    Why it matters: Many online nurseries ship whatever is next in the row.

  2. A Deep Drink Before the Trip

    Every plant gets a thorough watering right before it's packed, so it starts the journey fully hydrated.

  3. Roots Sealed In

    We wrap the pot and roots in plastic to lock in moisture, so your plant has water to drink all the way to your door.

    Why it matters: Bare-root plants are often shipped with their roots exposed and drying out.

  4. Braced for the Ride

    Cardboard inserts are secured inside every box to hold your plant in place, so it won't slide, tip or get damaged in transit.

  5. Shipped Only by FedEx

    We ship your trees exclusively with FedEx. We've found they deliver the fastest and handle live plants the most gently.

And if anything goes wrong, every plant is backed by our 1 Year Warranty.

Healthy Roots Make a Huge Difference

  • Never buy bare-root plants. These trees are starved of nutrients, and have a low survival rate.
  • Beware of nurseries cut corners by growing in small pots. These "rootbound" plants are weak, struggle to absorb nutrients, and die quickly after planting.
  • Some nurseries try to sell oversized plants, but chop off vital roots so they can cram the rootball into a narrow box to save on shipping!

You Want Winner's Circle™ Climbing Roses Grown by Experts

Some nurseries ship small, weak climbing roses grown in tiny pots to save money. These "root bound" plants struggle after planting and take longer to climb and bloom well.

Nationwide Plants only sends you strong Winner's Circle™ Climbing Roses, selected and cared for by our plant experts, with healthy, developed root systems. That means they settle in quickly and start covering your trellis or fence with red blooms sooner.
