How much to prune a rose and when?
in Plants
Hello folks,
Our garden was left to grow for some time before we moved in.
Now things have come into bloom, I've discovered there's a rose growing.
It's really high so I'm assuming its overgrown and needs to be pruned, but does anyone know about this?
I know you get climbing roses etc so I'm wondering if it's meant to be quite tall.
Was gonna prune it a bit so it doesn't flip into the neighbours garden but don't want to destroy it and saw some birds perching on it so have left it alone for now.
