BY TODD VINEYARDFebruary is the monthwhen most modern rosesneed to be pruned. Even ifyour roses have already begungrowth, the time hascome to prune. Annual heavypruning is essential to ensurethe prolific bloom andlong life of a rose bush.Explaining the concept ofrose pruning without a livebush on which to demonstrateis difficult, so try tovisualize the following steps:Pruning of roses is actuallyone year round. Every timeou cut off old blooms andemove twiggy growth, youre actually promoting newrowth. There are two timesyear when you prune moreeriously (spring and fall)nd you will need the folowingitems: a good pair ofand pruners (preferably thecissor type, not anvil type),sharp keyhole saw andarge loppers, a heavy pairf leather gloves, a pruningompound and a dull knife.The first step in springpruning of Hybrid Teas,Grandifloras,Floribundasand Climbingroses is toremove anyDecatur, Texas, Wednesday, January 30, 2013 ALL AROUND WISE • A PART OF THE WISE COUNTY MESSENGER 15Solving the mystery of pruning roses940-627-5987WCMESSENGER.COM/SUBSCRIBEAgNewscanes thatare dead orjust old andnon-productive.Thesecanes areusually grayin color and scaly.This pruning will encouragefuture “basal” breaks,which are the life blood ofany rose bush. Basal breaksrefer to new shoots, soon-tobeproducing canes, whicharise from the graft union.These should not be confusedwith “suckers,” whicharise from the rootstock belowthe graft union. Removeall suckers.To begin fine tuning thepruning, remove all twiggygrowth on the remainingcanes (note: the fine-tunepruning on climbing rosesshould be done after theybloom in the spring). Try toclean out the middle of thebush as much as possible.This allows for good air circulationto prevent insectsand disease.Now you are ready to pruneon the good, healthy canes.If your roses have alreadyflushed growth, it is importantto prune each cane backto a dormant bud. A bud thathas already begun growthand is then pruned will simplycontinue to grow vigorouslyand bloom very little.A dormant, non-growingbud will initiate growth afterpruning and will producean abundance of blooms.One comment used to describepruning is to “pruneto an outside bud.” Thismeans when picking thepoint on a given cane to cutback to, make sure there isa good bud on the cane facingtoward the outside of theplant. This will ensure thegrowth of the new bud is tothe outside, therefore keepingthe center of the roseBRIDGEPORTIRON & METALWE PAYTOP PRICESFOR ALL METALSState Certified ScalesAccurate WeightsMONDAY - FRIDAY8 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.SATURDAY8:30 a.m. - 2 p.m.3261 S.

If there isthe need to prune back to adormant bud, the size of thecane may be larger, and thecane length may be shorter.The final product of yourpruning should be a rosebush about 18 to 24 inchestall with 4 to 8 canes.
