Kansas State University horticulture expert Claude W. Derting warns against planting roses until killing frosts are past. Last spring’s frost dates vary by region from April 9 in southeast areas to May 2 in western counties. He advises soil tests, pH 6.5–7.0, acid soils may need lime, and suggests a long, well-drained bed with peat moss or compost mix and balanced fertilizer per bushel. Soak roots overnight before planting.
