We bought some dormant rose bushes from a store that are in a plastic

They had some leaves on them when we purchased them. Should they be
kept watered?
It will be another two months before we can plant them.

I'd plant them in a big pot (with drainage), perhaps 2-3 gallons, and
keep them watered and fertilized this summer. Plant next fall as the
temps start to cool down.

It's very doubtful they'll survive bare rooted till then.
