What do i do to a rose after it has bloomed and the petals fallen off, do i cut the bud off?

a northern prospective: fall going into winter: you can leave the ';hips'; for bird food during the winter, but in spring cut them off or they will take energy that the plant would otherwise use for flower production....spring: cut off hips and prune any dead or crossing or older canes, do your heaviest pruning in spring.... summer: prune only when needed (damaged or intrusive branches) and cut off spent flowers (before the hips form) downt to the first set of 5 leaves.. that will help them rebloomWhat do i do to a rose after it has bloomed and the petals fallen off, do i cut the bud off?
cut all dead heads off and then it will bloom again,do not wait for the petals to fall off.What do i do to a rose after it has bloomed and the petals fallen off, do i cut the bud off?
i have heard fromn a friend who has a lovely rose garden that you cut the stem down at a slant to just above the first leaf that has five leaves on it! his are great must be right!
Yes, and try to use a very sharp pair of prunning shears and be sure to cut it at an angle. 45 degrees is ideal.





The person's answer above mine made me laugh. It is not because it won't bloom again, it is because the plant supplies a dead flower with energy that it doesn't need. By cutting it off the plant saves its energy, heals it self and then continues to grow more because of the saved energy.





If you need help my dad has been rose gardening for over 26 years. Just e-mail me and I will get it to him.
From the ';end'; (where the rose was), move down the branch and cut just below the first stem that has a cluster of leaves on it. The rose will not bloom again beyond that point. By cutting the branch there, the bush is spared sending energy (and nutrients to the leaves), forcing more energy (and more blooming power) to the rest of the plant.
Yes, you do, otherwise it will not bloom again.
This depends upon the type of rose. Most 'ordinary' roses benefit from 'dead-heading' as it is called because not only does it make the plant look neater, it also prolongs flowering. However, some roses, eg the Rugosa type, are grown not just for their flowers but for their beautiful hips after the flowers have faded. If you cut off the flower-heads you will lose these, so check the type of rose that you have.
I'd have to agree w/ the person above me but I didn't know about the five thing
Yes everyone is right but #2 %26amp; #4 are VERY right.
use the petals as decoration
