Question
I live in the Monterey Bay Area, Central Coast of California.  I have 6 roses that I planted in Jan of 2009.  This will be their first winter.  I don't know what zone I'm in so I am unsure as to how to winterize them.  I also need to transplant them as they have grown up to 4' tall this first year and are bigger than I expected. Do I do that now or wait till spring.  My Roses are Angel Face (Lavender), Black Cherry Jacreflo, Scarlet Admiral.

Answer
The Monterey area is a really good area to grow roses as you have found out if they are 4 feet tall. When rose books speak of winterizing roses, they are referring to parts of the country that get nasty cold winters. If the temperature gets far below freezing then you have to protect the rose bushes or the canes will freeze and die. However you are in a perfect place and because your winters are mild, you don't have to protect your roses for the winter.
You can also move your roses now but because they are still actively growing, cut them back to 18 inches as the roots will be damaged and can't support a large rose bush plus water them well the night before.  Have the new holes ready, and try and transplant them in the evening. Again because your temperatures are still warm enough to continue growing, just make sure you water the roses daily. If you see the leaves droop, simply keep watering even if they drop off, keep using the water. Transplanting always puts a rose into shock and it will re-act by dropping it's leaves. Now if you want you can wait until the month of December or January as this is when you get your lowest temperatures but the roses will probably still go into stress.
In your area you can prune your roses in the spring. If your roses are getting bigger than you want them, prune them back hard to 18 inches every spring. Or when they are transplanted, prune back by a third every spring. Here is your area rose society.
