Thank You Stephen! On average, about how many canes did that leave you to work with? Alida | ||

We cut old wood every year right to the ground in July once the blooming stopped. During the winter, even took out more to keep the shape of the structures. stephen | ||

i notice that alot of public gardens that display these roses somehow manage to keep them on rather narrow posts, yet they still look great. i have infinite room for the roses to grow 'up', but how can i prune them so they don't take up so much room on the ground? i have never pruned my ramblers for shaping, some say cut out old wood every year, some say no, i am confused! thanks!! alida |
