  • I like your helper (tool and hat holder)!

  • @FortnightComeFriday She is really good looking but she can scare the day lights out of you if she sneaks up from behind!

  • @deweypug Go West young man!

  • @GreenGardenGuy1 Nice! (I'm jealous)

  • @deweypug We are zone 9, a gardeners paradise.

  • @GreenGardenGuy1 Right, we are zone 5 here in NH...You must be in zone 8 or 9?

  • @deweypug This information is fine if you live in clod climates. In coastal California our roses really never stop growing. I prune them back in winter to force some dormancy.

  • Rather than pruning in the Fall/Winter, we simply tie the roses up in the fall, and do the pruning in the Spring. We find that there will always be some sort of dieback which requires a Spring pruning anyway. Additionally, the canes provide important moisture to the plant as it acclimates to cold weather. The plant will also try to heal the cuts and take energy out from the acclimation process.

  • Thanks for your advice Regards

  • @nadia76284 When you prune roses depends on how sever your winter is. Where weather might freeze wood on roses we wait until winter is over. Where winter is mild you can prune any time between late fall and late winter.
