When raising Chinese roses, whether it's potted or ground-planted Chinese roses, in addition to providing adequate light, fertilizer and water, and good ventilation, they also need to be pruned regularly. Pruning Chinese roses is not something that can be done at any time of the year, but attention should be paid to the following details:
I. How to prune Chinese roses in summer, early autumn, and high temperatures
Chinese roses can be pruned frequently. When watering or caring for them, if you see some withered branches or withered flowers, wilted flowers, yellow leaves, etc., you can cut them directly.
Because during high temperatures, it is hard to avoid having some withered branches and yellow leaves after exposure to strong sunlight or heavy rain, and these can be cut off. The remaining flowers can also be cut off, but one thing to note is that in summer and early autumn, when temperatures are very high, do not prune heavily.
Because when it's hot, the growth rate is not fast, and plants that are close to a semi-dormant state should not be pruned heavily. If we cut them too much, leaving few leaves, it's hard for them to recover, and their condition can easily deteriorate. Without leaves, they cannot perform photosynthesis and might even die. So at the end of summer and the beginning of autumn when it's hot, this point must be noted.

II. When is it more appropriate to prune Chinese roses
Actually, the time for pruning varies depending on the region, environment, and temperature. For example, in southern cities, the best time to prune Chinese roses, whether potted or ground-planted, is from mid-January to the end of February. During this period, pruning can be done according to the growth, variety, and characteristics of the Chinese roses.
In the north, where temperatures are lower, we can choose to prune from February to March. In addition to cutting off the diseased and withered branches and weak branches on the rose branches, we can also do some heavy, moderate, or light pruning of the Chinese roses.
At the same time, the details of pruning also need attention. When pruning Chinese roses, it is necessary to ensure that the pruning shears are smooth to avoid splitting the branches. For young potted Chinese roses, especially one-year-old seedlings or recently propagated seedlings, very young seedlings do not need to be pruned.
