Confederate Roses

[mechanic1987]

In the next few weeks we are going to set out 4 Confederate roses after the weather gets to where we want have a freeze in about 2 more weeks or so. Does any body have any thoughts on the soil prep and if I should use Pete moss?
Thanks

I got this from a web site and used it for my Confederate roses and they have grown very well.
"Use a good basic planting mixture of 1/3 topsoil, 1/3 sharp sand and 1/3 organic matter (compost, peat moss, manure, etc.). At the bottom of the hole put 1 cup of Super Phosphate. Water in well as you fill the hole. The next day water with root stimulator or starter solution.
