In a zone 5 winter its a good idea to cover the base with a mound of sand sometime after temperatures go below the 20's (f). In spring after the mound thaws again wash the mound away with a hose (the mound takes the place of snow just in case it doesn't snow).
Pictures that you can find in books that might be available at your local library (they were in mine), and what climatic zone the author thought this rose fell into.
