Curious about Jackson & Perkins roses

Yesterday, in the mail I received a Jackson & Perkins catalog. I noticed that all of their roses are 2 quart. Are these grafted or own-root? I did get Our Lady of Guadalupe that way from them, and was very pleased, they are own-root. I was curious about the hybrid teas mostly, I couldn't find where they gave that information. Is this their new way to ship all their roses?

I think that's how most places are shipping now because of the high cost of postage. If OLoG did well for you than I'd say go for it.

If they don't specifically say own root, I would assume they are grafted on Dr. Huey. Most J&P roses are grafted. I know recently they started offering own root.

The two quart plants are own root. They sell grafted roses in the spring season; the spring catalog arrives in early winter.

Thank you everyone. Since I only order roses for spring planting, guess if I order any from them it won't be until later.
