Cuttings

I'm after some advice please. I took some rose cuttings last October which are producing good leaves & shoots. The roots are healthy & 3-4 inches long. Can anyone tell me if I should plant these in the ground now please?

    I did too Eileen and have new shoots and foliage showing.  I'm planning to leave mine a bit longer and then pot them up individually so I can grow them on till they're bigger.    

    I'd be worried about them being swamped if I planted them straight out and, since they're form the garden we left behind, I really want them to succeed and be growing strongly before I subject them to life in the borders in this new garden.
