I lifted a climbing rose a weeks ago as passing it on to a friend for now it's in a pot in greenhouse.
But I think I maŷ pot temp into a pot Angie.

Can you not sqeeze into a corner till you are ready to plant again.

I suppose the thing would be to stop it drying out. Maybe wrapping it in bubble wrap might help. Or maybe you could put it in an empty compost bag and tie it tightly.
Just suggestions :o)

Give me a ring. I have plenty of spare pots you can borrow.

I have the rose 'Princes Trust ' in a rather small pot where the poor thing has been for several months, ever since I rescued it from being thrown in a skip. It seems to be holding its own and even bloomed quite well and I think I've almost decided where to put it!

If it's a temporary disturbance (days/weeks rather than months) it should be happy enough with a reasonable rootball in virtually any container - bucket, compost bag, grow bag, hessian wrap from a Christmas tree.

Thanks everyone - lots of options there.
The drying out is something DA Austin's website mentioned.
I've found an old zinc container round the back of the shed - that might do the job. It will all depend on the size of the rootball.
Scotsgran, thanks for the offer. I'll send you a pm.

I was thinking that doing a "ball & burlap" on it might also work, especially in Scotland.

Another option - thanks Tug. Weather dependant I'll get onto it on Monday. I'll see the size of the root ball before I make a final decision!
