No more than one per pot, and be prepared to move them on to bigger pots if you keep them for further years. I grew some from seed some years ago...
Stick your finger into the soil by the root ball. If there's any moisture there, they don't need watering. As they're still wilted after several...
It looks like a hybrid tea rose to me. Perhaps something like Pink Peace (introduced 1959), Prima Ballerina (1958), Wendy Cussons (1959). There...
Cooler and cloudier today, but still dry.
Maybe I'm being dumb but I don't think you can increase the flow rate beyond what comes out of your tap (when all other taps in your house are...

Maybe you would be allowed some kind of low mini polytunnel or cold frame over a raised bed to bring on seedlings and extend the season a bit? The...
