As long as they have enough room, they will grow year after year. They will grow virtually anywhere, except for the coldest climates so you should be able to grow them no matter where you live.

Since regular roses are somewhat temperamental and difficult to grow except in mild climates, go with a rose hybrid. Your local gardener can recommend a rose hybrid that will be hardy and just as beautiful as traditional roses.
