How do I transplant my mini rose plant?

Question by C: How do I transplant my mini rose plant?
I got a mini rose plant rooted in floral foam and I’m thinking about transplanting it into a bigger pot with soil? Do I just take the plant out of the current pot, foam and all, and just stick it in the dirt and cover it up?
If I try to remove the foam will it give the rose plant shock? I may tear the roots if i try to take the foam out so is it necessary?

Best answer:

Are the leaves on my rose plant supposed to be red?

Question by Cheyenne48: Are the leaves on my rose plant supposed to be red?
I purchased 2 Everblooming Hybrid Tea Rose plants: one is a First Prize pink bloom and the other a Oklahoma red bloom. The leaves are bright green on the First Prize, but are red on the Oklahoma. Are the red leaves a sign of an unhealthy plant? or is it normal?
Also, is it a bad idea to grow these plants in containers?

Best answer:

Answer by mamado
Some rose leaves do go red. The containers are okay for now, but when the plant starts to fade, I would definitely plant it in the ground.
