I can't grow them here, I did in Washington, but joined so I can still see them. I think roses are my very favorite flower, next to Iris. Love them

Hi Annie. Here is a photo of my back garden and Mr. Charles Darwin is behind the fountain.

Hi Anie, I am a happy person today. Both my Golden Celebration and Charles Darwin are blooming again.

Benjamin and Angie have planted a Graham Thomas, a Queen Martguerita and a Benjamin Briton. I am picking up a Jude the Obscure tomorrow.

Oh Ma Gosh Karen/ Nancy! The day that ends is the day before my birfday... I almost always buy a rose for my birfday... since all of my birfday money goes to household expenses.

Praying that I can get one.....

Hey Page! To the best of my knowledge, YES many roses do well in pots. And that would be particularly so in Ft. Lauderdale!
I would make sure it does not get too dry, (although you dont want to be over watering either). And if it shows signs of heat fatigue you may need some filtered shade during hot spells. I would perhaps keep it pruned a little more than an in-the-dirt-plant.

When choosing your tea rose, many times catalogs include information regarding suitability for containers. So good luck and let us know how is does!
