You do not say when it was planted or when you will be back. Right now it is our cold season. Your rose is not growing much. Tree roses are actually a graft onto what you might call the trunk. In cold areas you are told to protect even bury the top, grafted section. Assuming your tree rose was not hit with something that cracked to main tap root, it will be fine till you can GENTLY force it back to vertical. If, the tap root has been broken, it will never be any good.
