Q: I had a rose bush in a planter for a year but it died. Now I see 4-5 small bushes in the planter. Two appear attached to the original stump; three are separate.
Bad news—the sprouts are from the understock of your previous grafted rose. The plant you bought was grafted onto a vigorous but unattractive rose. These typically don't make pretty flowers and could grow unruly.
Plant them if you like, but I predict disappointment.
