Now that your rose bushes are finally loosing their leaves you may be tempted to cut back the canes, but in Colorado we do that in the Spring. The reason is because we may get a warm spell, either now or too early in the spring that will cause them to want to grow at the wrong time. Canes that have been cut back are more likely to sprout new growth, only to be injured by freeze.
Check with us in the late April to find out how to cut back roses - Connie
