With temperatures heading above 90 (Early May!), the small containers will dry out quickly and be harder to keep up with. Also, the plants are big enough now, that they are top heavy. I don't need so many individual plants. So I opted to plant them in a large group pot.
This is the after photo.
I sat the potted rose plants in the partially filled container, to evaluate the fit.
The rose plants are very healthy, with healthy roots. The plants were not root bound yet.
I think they will do well in the group container. There is a lot of root-room.
I'm still not 100% certain of my identification of this rose as SunMaid Kordana. There is no way to know for certain. For example, Golden Aloha Kordana and Sunstar Kordana look similar, to my eyes. Also, growing method, age of bloom, lighting wavelengths and intensity, affect the bloom. I guess it doesn't matter, since I won't be propagating or selling any. It is just for my own enjoyment.
