Prune Climbing Roses After They Bloom
Horticulturists at Iowa State College advise pruning climbing roses after blooming not in spring. Remove old wood to strengthen new shoots that bear next year’s flowers. For trellised plants, cut some old shoots at ground level and replace with new growth, preserving vigorous branches. Climbing hybrid teas require thinning weak wood while keeping growth that creates the desired display. A LeMars resident reports a May rainbow and Lucile Vosgerau is reassigned as a nurse to the U S Naval hospital in Samoa.
