Pruning vital raising roses Pruning is important in grow- ing good roses, says Russ Gom- me, horticultural specialist, On- tario Departrnent of Agriculture and Food. Because roses differ in habits, shape, growth and culture, prun- ing methods also vary. Roses are usually grouped into five classes of low hybrids, grandifloras, climbers, shrubs and standards. Pruning encourages new growth in the places you want. Severe pruning, however, can weaken the plants. Most types are pruned in springtime before they leaf out. Some climbing and rambling types are best pruned in September. Whatever type you have, Mr. Gomme suggests that the first step is to prune out dead and weak canes, leaving three to five strong stems. Hybrid .teas can be pruned back to six inches from the ground,.leaving two or more buds , on each stem. Floribunda can be pruned in much the same, manner, although not as severely. Vigorous growing per- petuals and grandiflolas can be pruned back to about a foot from the ground. Climbers and. ramblers usually . flower on the former season's growth. Therefore, pruning can. bkclo ,in autumn. Clean out 'old ;to,,eanc and leave three to five strong ones:. Climbers that flower on older wood can be pruned in spring by removing approxi- mately i -foot of the canes: Atrazin S-804 has been tested and proven effective as a selective herbicide for pre -emergent and early post -emergent weed control in field corn in Ontario.
