A better shot of the graft ... and even after rigging it up still leans rly bad

Are you certain that is grafted? It appears from your photos to be a rooted piece to me. Leaning isn't necessarily terrible. You probably should keep it staked so it will continue developing the roots. You might check with the society which sold it to make sure, but I think you have a rooted cutting and not a grafted plant. Kim

its from hardins nursery in Tampa fl .they only sel grafted on fortuniana . I called and was told to stake it ..... and not to transplant it till it has more roots for fear of breaking the new ones ... sounds to me like they grafted to small root stock on to big a plant . Then sent it off to the rose show way to soon
