I just bought a house and it has 6 rose bushes on it. I have never worked with roses let a lone in a garden. I am clueless. I am not even sure they are roses. It has thorns but the flower comes in batches of 3. The flower looks like a rose so I am just assuming.
I also see a vine growing around one of the bushes which I am trying to cut of it. Is that okay? All the bushes are out of direct sunlight and seam to be doing well. At the tipes of some of the bushes the stems look dead. Should I trim the stems that have no leaves? Should I cut of the flowers after a few days? How often should I water them? Again any info is good info. I am a putz when it comes to gardening.
I am in western New York.
Cutting out the vine sounds like a good thing. Trimming them up sounds good too, but my best advice is to get on line and look for a gardening sight and read up on pruning roses. Don’t fret they are easier than people think to deal with.
Plus it would help if I had an idea where you are located.
