The bushes are only single stem, mabe two two stem, and about 3 feet

feed them? and how much sun do they need.

Sorry, I made a terrible mistake in my reply.

I suggested that you not move the roses in the heat of the day; rather early morning or evening. WRONG! I was confusing WATERING, which should be done early morning or evening. Do not water in the heat of the day; the sun can burn through the water drops to the plant leaves.

What I meant is that TRANSPLANTING should ALWAYS be done in the late afternoon or early evening, so the poor plant has a chance to rest overnight before the sun hits.
