How to Prune Roses
1. -- Dormant Pruning --
The best time for dormant pruning of roses is before the axillary buds swell. At this time, cut off the withered branches, disease and pest branches, crossed branches, weak branches, and luxuriant branches from the base to reduce nutrient loss.
2. -- Growing Period Pruning --
In the growing period, remove the dense young buds on the rose, and retain 2-3 leaf buds on one main branch. It is best to prioritize removing the buds that grow inward and will cross the middle branches to promote even distribution of branches, which is beneficial for ventilation and light transmission inside the rose.
3. -- Thinning Flower Buds --
For single-flowering roses, it is best to remove the side buds and only retain one main bud to promote nutrient concentration, making the flowers larger and fuller. For the multiflowering variety with multiple flowers on one branch, you can remove the main bud to concentrate the flowering period and make the flowers evenly sized.
4. -- Precautions --
After the rose flowers fade, pay attention to cutting off the withered flowers and leaves to prevent nutrient consumption and maintain a beautiful plant shape. Also, when pruning, use clean and sharp scissors to keep the cut smooth and smooth.
