Default replanting new roses?

I planted my roses lower than recommended for my climate--it got down in the
low 20's here in Hampton Roads, VA in Jan and Feb, and I thought that having
the roses planted higher would endanger them next winter. I'm not sure
about replanting them now--I suppose it depends how long you've had them
in--if they've just been in a few days I'd think it would be OK to move
them.

Hi people,
I'm thinking my roses are still planted too high for my climate and even
though I just put them in a few weeks ago, I was thinking I should re

plant
them deeper. Additionally, I'm considering adding a little extra soil
lightners, since we seem to be under constant rain here and I worry that
their feet will be too wet as they are... Since they're looking alive,
leafing out a little, when may I do this without stressing them more than
they can handle?
Thanks in advance,
Jane in 6b, MD
