Use and Care Manual

Do not fertilize late in the summer as this is the time the rose should be
preparing themselves for dormancy and you do not want to create unnecessary
new growth that will likely die back from the first hard frost.
1: Decide When to Prune
Prune your rose bush in early spring, never in the fall and never in t he
winter. Check your rose bush from time to time as spring moves along and
when you start to see new shoots growing from the canes on your rose bush,
that’s a good sign that it is time to prune.
2: Use Proper the Tools
You will need a few basic tools when the time comes to prune your roses:
gloves, lopping shears, small hand shears, and a pair of hedge trimmers.
3: Determine How High to Prune
Determining how high you want to prune depends on how high you want your
rose bush to finish. Your rose bush will usually triple in size after pruning so
cutting it back to about a foot will leave it at 3 feet when it finished growing.
