USDA zone 7b and warmer.  Spring Pruning: Remove old canes and dead or diseased wood and cut back canes that cross. In warmer climates, cut back the remaining canes by about one-third.

Arena Roses says there has been a tremendous amount of confusion about this rose. Apparently, th eoriginal variety launched into commerce was close, but not true, to the genuine 'Spring Break'. Arena acquired its budwood from the breeder himself, so they're pretty confident they have the original article.
