Hot Tamale & Sun Sprinkles Zones

11 years ago

Dear Garden Folk

I'm thinking of purchasing Hot Tamale and Sun Sprinkles.
The description says that they are tolerant in Zone 6 and on some sites it says 5b. I trust your hands on experience more than the print out and Zone 6 and 5b are so close to home.. sooo, I'm in the northern part of Massachusetts. Do you think I could grow them successfully here?

Thanks!

Dale

Dale, they should be fine if they are own root roses. If they're grafted be sure to bury the bud union below ground when you plant them.
