What about Climbing roses.We're all asking the same..Mine is still in flower and has been for the entire summer,so When please?And could we have a proper close up of exactly where the cut should be made. Hands with secatuers often hide the most important aspect.How about a circle around correct area.Ruth

Do not prune climbing roses at all. Never, ever do this. They don't really need it. I have had a climbing rose for four years and have never pruned it. Also don't dead head. The hips look great and the birds love them. All the books I've ever read on roses say not to prune climbers.

What if you don't know whether your rose is a climber or rambler?

I found this article helpful, as it's simple and other things I've read have sounded a lot more complicated. ronniestuart - I found a useful site which said that a rambling rose will have seven leaves on each leaf branch, whereas a climber has five.
