Don’t be nervous about pruning your roses incorrectly.

Roses are very forgiving. Each year the plants produce strong new shoots, giving you beautiful blossoms and another try at pruning.

•  The best time to prune most roses islate winter or early spring about 4-6 weeks before the last frost.
•  Summer pruning is just a matter of removing the faded blooms throughout the growing season.
•  Because pruning promotes new growth, discontinue in late summer to avoid subjecting plants to winter damage.
