I found this very helpful as i was unsure of whether to bury the stems very deep.

yes as long as the old rose didnt have any diseases....
Do you prune back the stems of a bare root rose. Mine has a green waxy substance on the larger stems.
I would plant now and prune in late February - we may well get a cold snap before then, and any new growth might get nipped back so if you prune then it will give the resulting new growth a better chance
