Well, you know what if I had $1 million I would give it to you for that compliment because it means the world to me. Thank you so incredibly much. I appreciate you and I hope you keep watching.
I wanted to thank you for giving detailed instructions on how to prune knockout roses! With your help, my second batch of knockout roses are growing back in beautifully! I’m glad I came across your page.
Kim here is something to consider before making any cuts at all on your beautiful roses. Have you ever wanted to plant more Knockout Roses in other places on your property, or wanted to share your beautiful roses with your friends? Look up videos on how to propagate new roses from your cuttings, It is so easy to do. I had a beautiful rose bush in my yard in California that was marbled yellow and red, it was gorgeous. I was able to clone that beautiful rose bush several times with just my pruned cuttings, 2Ltr soda bottles, and some potting soil and spread my love of that rose bush to several friends and family gardens before we moved. My family and friends still send me pictures of their roses and it makes my heart sing that I could share the love I had for the rose. May God always Bless you with good health, safety, a beautiful garden, and prosperity in all you do.
This is the answer to my question!! I want to share my flowers with each and every one of my friends and loved ones!! I cherish memories of going through my grandmother’s gardens & seeing her share Mother Nature’s blessings!!
Thank you so much for being so detailed! I watched 5 videos and this one was finally the one where it clicked ! No one else showed what a bud was or what angle to hold the shears! So thanks!
Thank you for your video. Your roses are beautiful. I have huge rose bushes which take up the entire front space so are in dire need of pruning. However, I feel so guilty about cutting even a tiny branch. Your video made me feel a bit better about trimming them. Thank you again.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge along with your wonderful technique and explanations. It's awesome to actually find a video that teaches exactly what I was hoping it would.
Thank u for sharing on how to prune the roses 🌹 Now I understand in how to prune my rose bushes. Ur video really help me alot to prune the right n wrong way. Thanks a bunch.❤
Experienced rosarians say that the cut has to be higher, not immediately close to the exterior bud. Because when we cut, a part of that cut will dry and die and if it is so close to the bud it will affect it. Just cut a bit higher, about half an inch or so, just so the stem cut doesn't reach down to the bud we want to grow.
Thank you for an encouraging video. Roses frighten me. Historically, they have been difficult plants to grow. They are subject to so many problems that only the best gardeners had the magic touch with them, so I stayed away from them, but these Knock Out roses are easy to grow according to a friend. She planted six of them eight years ago. Said she does very little to them aside from water them. Said she planted them by more or less just throwing them into the ground. They are now virtual rose trees that are positively dripping in blooms. I am encouraged to try planting some. Do I have to test the soil first? The soil here is pretty clay-ee. I know they need a sunny location. I had no idea about how to prune them, I figured you just cut off anything that did not look right. I had no idea where to cut or that it should be at an angle. Any instructions you can give me to help me get some planted would be greatly appreciated. You sound like you may be in Texas where I am. Temps here are really HOT half of the year, and we have tremendous humidity. I have had some good success with Salvias which I love very much, but I long for rose bushes..... Thank you again! Cheers!
I’m so glad. Early spring is the best and then I usually prune twice while they are actively growing not a hard prune, but just going in and deadheading
Very helpful explanation!!! I prune sometime in the fall and get a good 3 weeks of bloom in the springtime. It is now the end of May and it appears mine are diseased. Do you recommend to prune at this time to hopefully get them to bloom for the summer?
Hi, I planted the roses in my garden bed 3 weeks ago. And also gave rose food. Water them daily. But I don’t see much growth and no new buds. I had cut the gone blooms. Please advise!
MIne are starting to get way too leggy and they look bad at the bottom because theres no fullness - tops look good just the bottoms are way too leggy. Can I cut the rose back all the way to the ground next spring to kind of start over with it and will that make it bushier on the bottom? Tops look good but bottoms just look bare. (PS thank you for the tips on pruning properly!)
As far as time of year to prune, I have been told that you would want to wait until the plant is dormant and not budding to do so, since it can cause trauma to the plant. Would that be correct, or not?
Thank you for showing carefully the wrong and right ways of pruning using your own plants and methods.
So nice of you. Thank you for watching
Thank you. I never knew to cut on the outward facing branch. In February I will practice what I learned today.
You can do it! Let me know if you need any help 😊
I've looked around and your video is the very best

Just know that they will grow back and you can do this. Just be very careful and take intentional cuts.

fantastic video
Thank you for this tutorial. I live in the Northeast US. What's the best time of year to prune? How far back can I prune?
You can do them in the winter months and you can get as low as you’d like but I don’t always go that low.
Experienced rosarians say that the cut has to be higher, not immediately close to the exterior bud. Because when we cut, a part of that cut will dry and die and if it is so close to the bud it will affect it.
Just cut a bit higher, about half an inch or so, just so the stem cut doesn't reach down to the bud we want to grow.

Thanks so much for the info!! What time of the year should I prune them?
You can prune them many times a year. For now I would hold off until February or March.
This was so helpful! What time of year is the best time to prune?
I’m so glad. Early spring is the best and then I usually prune twice while they are actively growing not a hard prune, but just going in and deadheading

So informative!! Thank you! Only question is what time of year is best to do this?? I live in Maryland.
Can you save your rose 🌹 trimmings for regrowth? I seen a guy trim hydrangea’s & get them to grow roots for a new plant!?! 🥰🌸🌻
Yes you can!

Maybe a stake will help
Maybe not all the way down. Jusy a hard prune. Where are you located? I’ll tell you when to do this
I'm in South Eastern KY@@thesoutherndaisyllc thanks!
I prune just the dead branches in the early spring. Don't know if that is right or wrong.
As far as time of year to prune, I have been told that you would want to wait until the plant is dormant and not budding to do so, since it can cause trauma to the plant. Would that be correct, or not?
Is it ok to prune in June? Im in NY
Is there a time of year when to prune?
Hello, I’m in Ohio when do I take it down nice and low? Spring or fall?
Thank you
What is pink flower in front of rose ?
We bought a home and took them all out- they were just too much maintenance for us!
Oh no really. They are so easy to care for. But that’s ok you have to be the one to care and if it’s too much then you handled it b
😪
Great explanation with close up detail. Excellent video. Thank you.
Where a "leaf" is coming out, not a "branch." They branch from a leaf node.
