Planting roses that are nearly dead?

I bought a few rose bushes at a huge discount that are nearly dead. I've already planted them with some basic potting soil. Are there some products or techniques that can help these roses grow quickly if at all? How often should I water them and should I add fertilizer? Thank you.

The answer above this is pretty much on the mark.


If you prune them right back, then they are able to put their energy into surviving and regenerating, rather than having to support foliage.


Be harsh with your pruning! The harder back you prune them, the more chance they will have to survive. Make sure you leave a few fresh buds though, for regrowth.
Reply:In addition to the last answer, prune the branches, leaving just a few leaves on each.
Reply:I can't guarantee they will survive, but make sure you water deeply and do it daily. I use Miracle Gro and follow the directions so you don't stress them with too much fertilizer.
