I just bought a canyon cupido in a supermarket, poor thing. I need to know how to transplant it quick! What type of soil and what size pot?! Thanks so much, I look forward to any advice I can get (my local garden store didnt know what to say??)!

This is a rose from Denmark bred by Poulsen. Poulsen is doing some excellent work in regards to disease resistance. It is a name you can rely on to put out good roses. Any potting soil will do and a pot with the top diameter about 12 inches accross will be fine to start with. Sprinkle some slow release fertilize such as 14-14-14 over the top and then just sit back and enjoy the rose.

Ditto to Old Rosarian's advise on size, etc.
I've found planting the old pot first works great. Press the soil around the existing pot in the new pot. Pull the pot out, and carefully remove the rose, slide the rose into the ready made hole and you have a painless move. smile.

Good luck with your rescue.

Will the canyon cupido live outside through the winter? Or is this a rose that is only a house plant?

Canyon Cupido is listed as hardy to zone 6. Most minis do very well outside over the winter. Alot of your question depends on what zone you live in.
