Pruning Roses
 

As I mentioned a while ago my wife who died in April was the gardener
of the house,And me ,well I used to think the garden looked after
itself. Anyway Ive managed to keep the gardens really nice throughout
the summer ,but I still have little or no knowledge. Anyway the roses
are now looking very untidy and Im wondering if i need to prune them
before or after the winter,and if so has any one got any instructions
on doing this. Ive got three climbing roses and the rest are just
normal ones apart from the two I bought in the summer one of which
was called sweet Valentine I think. Anyway please excuse my lack of
knowledge on gardening Dave. Oh one last question,now the winters on
its way Ive replaced the summer plants at her grave with winter
pansies,are there any other plants that will flower over the winter
that I can put in pots?.
