Prune roses
Prune the soft tops of your roses to protect them from disease and winter frosts, and the root system from the damage that is caused by wind rock. Use sharp secateurs and orientate them with the blade side in contact with the stem for the cleanest cut.
Aim for a neat shape and reduce the height by a third. Leave roses grown for their hips for as long as possible – you can finish all the rose pruning next spring.
