Answers:
Usually March/April or October November to plant roses, but you can plant a "container grown" rose from the nursery any time. Make sure you give plenty of fertiliser ( horse manure is good) and water in well.
Plant roses during their bareroot season. Usualy January is when the roses start arriving in the stores.
they can be planted any time of year really . when they selling in shops they can be planted ... no problems with mine ... happy planting
If you live in the North, the best time to plant dormant rose bushes is in the Fall, but only where zero or subzero temperatures seldom occur. In really cold climates, Spring is the best time for planting roses. In the South, anytime from mid. November to mid February is fine when conditions are favorable(When the weather is mild) Roses that are planted int he spring usually don't get as much growth as those that are planted in the fall.
As far as roses that are not in dormancy, I'd say it's safe to plant them as long as your temperatures are not extreme. I have found that by planting my new roses in extra large planters for the first year gives me the benefit of being able to start them in shade (the same environment they were growing in when I bought them) and slowly move them to the sunny location I had planned for them. ( I live in zone 7) Not to mention, if any disease arise in the newbies I can easily get them away from my healthy roses to nurse them back to health.
As far as other plants go, I'm not sure where you are. I would suggest going to the nursery you would like to get your plants from and asking the manager there to help you find plants that are safe to go in the ground at this time. I just planted Lantana and Mums and they are doing well.
Good luck!
