I was wondering when I should cut back my two Roses outside. I have one rose bush and one climbing rose. I just didn't want to cut them back too early!

Thanks,
Keri

Hey Keri...look West and you can wave my way [wayey]
Have you got some new growth sprouting yet?I trimmed some of mine 2 weeks ago I still have 2 untouched as plan to move them(shoulda DONE moved um!)just be sure you cut at a 45 degree angle so water can drain& cut above a node.I even have a rose bud on one of my alhoas...ones thats re locateing.

[wayey] HI THERE!! My roses are really doing good, so good I hate to touch them. They are growing like a weed of course it doesn't help when our weather can't make up its mind on whether it wants to stay 70 degrees or 40!!

Good Luck on moving your roses. I moved three last year and one died on me. I WAS SO MAD!!
