Expert gardening tips for pruning roses and shrubs for healthy growth

When should I prune my roses? How far back should they be trimmed? Roses can be pruned lightly in the fall, but heavier pruning should be done in the spring. Exact methods vary slightly depending on the type of rose you have, but general rules apply to all types. Most importantly, cut damaged canes, any deadwood and anything that is diseased or broken. Shoots from the grafted root stock should also be removed. Any crossing branches should be removed, aiming the pruning at improving shape and air movement within the rose bush. Cuts should be made above a strong bud that faces outwards. The cut should be made smooth and clean, using sharp tools to avoid damage. Any tools used should be cleaned between plants with a 1:10 mixture of bleach and water, rinsing with plain water before using again. When finished, the tools should be cleaned again, dried, and oiled before storing. When should Rose of Sharon be pruned back for winter? Rose of Sharon blooms on new wood and should be pruned in late winter or early spring, February to March, when still dormant and before the new leaf buds swell. It is also easier to see the
