is it too late to prune roses, my friend has dug up some roses from her mum's garden as it's up for sale, she's potted them up but they're top heavy as they haven't had any attention for over a year, is it ok to prune them now ? I imagine all the flowers will be lost for this year which she doesn't mind just as long as she can save the plants

Thanks, grindle for that beautiful picture of a rose like mine! 👍 I've also done a little investigation trying to identify it. I came up with the same species but being as it is from seed I doubt it will be Canary Bird as that is a hybrid, and we know hybrids don't come true from seed. I think the species is more likely there seems to be a few places that sell the seed

as it was dry I managed to get a lot of plants in the borders that have been sitting waiting, looks like they've been watered in overnight

balc2 while I was looking for a rose, I came across this which looks very much like your China Rose Rosa xanthina or Manchu Rose there is also a cultivated one called Canary bird, maybe this could be yours
