23 May '05 4:06 pm We bought the house we currently live in 2 and a half years ago. It sits on 1.5 acres and had NOT one plant on the grounds besides a small rose bush barely survivng. I have since been landscaping and hubby has put in a large pond but I have very little knowledge about roses. Can any one tell me what kind of rose bush I have and when do I prune it?? Any tips would be much appreciated.
24 May '05 7:48 am Kayla, I can only give you some very general 'advice' - it's really difficult to destroy a rose by e.g. pruning at the wrong time. Depends on your climate (like what sort of 'winter' you experience) but you could prune in early spring. It gives the rose a chance to have a rest!
Whereabouts do you garden? Rose varieties can be very country-specific.
Cheers,
