    Depends kinda how "established". Roses tend to have long tap roots, but its doable, witness planting bare root roses, but as I haven't tried it!!! can' t vouch for it, - but as long as its late in the season you take as much root ball as possible and plant in a well prepared hole with as little gap as possible and then keep watered and fed for a good while should work.
