How to winterize my tree rose in zone 5

First time rose grower in upstate ny can you advise as to how to winterize ?

Thank you

Cece

My tree roses are in large pots, and for winter, I have taken mine into my unheated garage. They actually start growing in early March in the garage. I am in Zone 5b. I do water them occasionally while they are in the garage, but not too much.

I can put my tree rose in a screened in back porch. I’ve seen videos with people that wrap the trunk in like insulation for pipes and then they wrap the top in burlap. Do you think that I need to do that?

What zone are you in?

for this post, zone. 5b

Yes to the pipe insulation and the burlap. Anything to keep the winter winds away should be beneficial.
