Container Gardening - Complete rose pruning this month. Pruning removes unproductive wood and thin, soft stems while controlling the size and shape of plants.
- Prune just above a strong bud, preferable one pointing outwards.
- Standard roses should be pruned to about 25cm above the main stem and bush roses can be cut back about two-thirds, leaving 3-4 buds on each branch. Climbers can go back leaving 5-6 strong canes
