Pauline, another word of caution on planting those ZD roses:
......................
Penny,
         
I've got four ZD's in my garden.   

In coastal South Carolina, mildew will be a problem - tell her to plant
them 
where there is plenty of air circulation.  And, yes, as everyone says,
plant 
them now.  ZD takes a year to establish.  Then, if she's happy, she'll
bloom 
like gangbusters.  Being a Bourbon, her heaviest blooms will be spring 
and fall, but mine always have a blossom or two - and oh! the fragrance!

One more thing: Tell her to give them plenty of room because of the
mildew!
