I bought the pot of this last Fall

But over the Winter it looks smaller and sit flat on the ground
Is that normal or is it not doing well?

I live in Texas and we expose the crown of the plant. I understand that they do bury it up North to help protect it in the Winter. It looks like it's getting what it needs. I had this rose before the Witch's Broom disease swept through our neighborhood and overtook some roses before I could prune it out. It's a pretty yellow rose with a very nice fragrance!
