My Michiganbulb order arrived today Very Happy And it only shipped yesterday! It helps that the company is only a 1.5 hour drive from here Very Happy

The bulbs look good, a nice weight for the size of the packages and they feel nice and firm Smile The roses look good too. Theyve got some moist (but not wet) newspaper around the roots. Hopefully they can wait till tomorrow to be planted Smile I gotta be at work in an hour, otherwise Id plant them now.

If your roses are bare root they should be soaked in water overnight. Hope these sites help with the planting. Glad everything arrived in good shape. Lots of future pictures in that package.
