These are the tools that I use to prune my roses:

*Good hand pruners
*Pruner sharpener
*Cleaning solution for cleaning Pruners
*Rag
*Rose and Flower Care (I use a capful on each rose and watered them well.) follow the directions on label of the product you use. This fertilizer contains a systemic so roses are not edible.
*Good Gloves
*Glue for larger stems after pruning. This protects from insects like Rose Borers.

I’m just getting my roses pruned. It’s been so cold I haven’t wanted to go outside. My roses have been hard hit by Utah’s Weather.

These are some pictures of my not so pretty roses.

This is my winterized Pink Knock-Out Rose.

Enjoy your roses this year!
