Pruning the roses
 

I was giving the hedge its pre-nesting cut today, and noticed that we
have roses that have buds. On one of them they're flower buds!

Our books all say prune in March (Cambs).

What does the team think? Should we do it now?

Always prune ours before the winter sets in, pre Christmas, to stop and
wind damage occurring.

Did mine a couple of weeks ago, despite them growing well and having
some flower buds. I'd put it off again and again hoping for dormancy,
but despite several cold days and repeat frosts they never stopped growing.
