Initial post 20 MAY 08 by Anna
Hello all,
Hopefully someone could help me out. I just planted my bare root roses this weekend and a couple of the plants had already sprouted stems/leaves. Should I prune those off?
They have wilted a bit and look a little sad. Wasn't sure if I should leave them alone or if I should just remove them.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Anna

Hi, Anna. Many growers rub off all weak growth on bareroots, especially uncolored canes and leaves. Others, like me, leave it on and still have to prune it off later. I think the advice is remove it now, remove it later: it's going to have to go.
