Miniature Roses

trimming minature roses

15 years ago

Hi, I was given a minature rose, I have no idea what kind it is but I put it outdoors in a large container and it does better then my other roses. My questions is this do I cut it back like I do my other roses or just leave it alone. From the ground it's about 3ft tall.

You can keep the spent blooms cut back. Also if a branch is getting in your way just shorten it. You can't hurt minis!
Try to conserve as many leaves as you can.
