Briar Roses
We have a number of roses in our garden - I think they are called briar
roses. The type that develop lots of hips after they have finished flowering. They also through out a lot of new shoots from underground. Some of the new shoots I am taking out as the beds are in danger of being swamped. But what about the original bushes - should these be pruned in the same way as modern roses? I am sure I read somewhere that you don't prune them but they are getting straggly and, particularly at this time of the year, they look very untidy. I would appreciate any help Jeanne Stockdale |
