Ground cover roses are prized for their ability to form dense, flowering carpets and are usually less demanding in terms of pruning than other types of roses, such as large-flowered or climbing roses. All ground cover roses require pruning, although the amount and type of pruning may vary depending on the variety. Pruning is a key part of rose care, as it helps keep the plants healthy, encourages abundant flowering, improves air circulation within the bush and helps maintain the desired shape and size of the plant. Pruning does not necessarily have to be repeated every year. If the bushes are not old, overgrown or have frozen shoots, pruning is not necessary. However, if you want to rejuvenate the bushes and encourage them to grow and branch out, we recommend spring pruning. Regular pruning is also recommended to: Remove dead, diseased or damaged shoots, which prevents the spread of diseases and pests. Encourage the growth of new, healthy shoots that will flower this season or next. Maintain the aesthetic appearance of the shrub by preventing overgrowth and keeping the shrub in good condition. Pruning ground cover roses is best done in late winter or early spring, just before the growing season begins, although the exact timing may vary depending on the climate of your region. Light pruning can also be done after the main blooming season has ended to remove faded flowers and encourage plants to continue blooming, if the ground cover rose variety allows it. Although all ground cover roses require some degree of pruning, the method and intensity of pruning should be tailored to the specific variety and the gardener's goals. It is worth reading the recommendations for the specific ground cover rose variety you have in your garden to ensure they receive the best possible care. ????
