We have three roses that have become rather lanky due to poor light
conditions. Advice about what time of year to transplant them into pots
would be welcome.

Probably when they are dormant - early spring - you could prune them at the
same time. I did this last year but have had a poor show from the potted
rose - I don't think they like the idea :-) You'd need to pot them up in a
mixture suitable for shrubs, and then remember to water and feed like mad
next year. Hope you have better luck than I did.

That's what I think we may do, and like you said prune them first. Let you know what happens. Thanks Chris.
