I just received, as a gift, a large lavender Rose Topiary. Is it safe to plant now (Sept 11) and if not, how do I care for it through the winter months? I live in Fort Plain NY. Thank You Robert Hoffman

Tree roses need to be trenched to make it through winter HERE’S A LINK that describes the procedure.  You should sink the potted rose into the soil up to the top of the pot now so it can gradually go dormant with the season so it will be ready for the trenching later in October before the ground freezes.  In spring you can remove it from the pot and plant it but it will need to be trenched before winter every year.
