Should I plant my propagated plants outside now or in spring?

I managed to propagate my 'lovely fairy' rose by taking cuttings and now have 10 little plants. I did this last year and planted them outside and none made it through the winter although the 'mother plant' has made it through many winters in my yard. I planted them out in October last year. This year they are done earlier so I have a choice of planting them outside or keeping them inside. Does anyone have any experience with this, or a recommendation? Should I plant them outside or should I keep them inside over winter?

I wrote an article a few years ago that might be useful. I still use the same method, although last winter I was caught by an early snowfall, and the cuttings remained next to the house over winter. I lost rather more this spring.

Here is a link that might be useful: Overwintering

Would you like to sell one of the rooted cuttings?
