Why prune roses?

Why should you prune your roses in South Africa?

 

Often considered a daunting task, rose pruning can be fun as it provides the mind with some alone time and often treats the gardener to a mental and even meditative state in which to relax, forget about work and stresses and enjoy the outdoors.

 

  • Pruning roses, helps rejuvenate your rose plants, it encourages new and more aggressive growth and leads to a more prominent and longer flowering period.
     
  • By pruning roses you improve air circulation and remove old growth which reduces disease build up and encourages a more attractive, healthy plant.
     
  • A good annual pruning means your roses will remain young and vigorous and reward you with bigger, better and more prominent flowers for longer periods of time.
     
  • A lesser reason for pruning roses, but still a valid one is the
    added benefit of a mental and even meditative state in which to relax, forget about work and other stresses and enjoy the amazing outdoors.
