I pretty much prune as needed not by the calendar. Here on the Gulf
Coast, zone 10, roses grow the year around so I prune to renew the bush
and keep it in shape, also, pruning gives bigger but fewer blooms.
Don't rush it, easier to catch up and late pruning is better than
early. Long stem roses or lots of little guys, it is your choice.

PS: Deadheading only will produce many small blooms and is a type of
pruning whereas, cutting off deadheads one, two or more leaf stalks
below the bloom is also pruning but for larger blooms. Sometimes taking
a whole cane is part of this deadheading. To balance a plant, to make
it renew, etc. Every plant is an individual and must be pruned
according to it's and your best advantage. Old wood bloomers and new
wood bloomers fit into this pruning scheme. It is an elaborate and
interesting art/science. Have fun.

PSPS: Cutting folwers for the table is a real challenge. Long enough
for the vase will soon over prune a plant. My-O-my, what is a person to
do! :-))
