Roses - Rose Species

Most of these varieties produce single flowers in May and June and have graceful decorative foliage.  A young plant, during it's first few years, will need shaping to encourage strong young growth.  When established, old spent wood should be removed occasionally in winter, bearing in mind that the flowers and fruits are produced on strong shoots of the previous year's growth.  In general, very little pruning is required.
