Major annual pruning is usually accomplished on most kinds of roses at this time of year. Vegetative buds are swelling, indicating the degree if vigor of the branches. The leaves have not expanded so that the branching structure of the plant is still obvious. According to C.R. Bryan, Jr. Delaware County cooperative extension director, stem canker continues to be a frequent and serious problem of roses and, after the stress of winter, is more pronounced on the branches. Look for the appearance of red or brown discolored areas on the rose stems.

If this procedure is not followed, the disease can progress downward during the current growing season and kill major limbs. When removing any diseased stems, be sure to sterilize the pruning shears after each cut to stop further spread of the fungal organism. Dip shears in a disinfectant such as a mixture of nine parts water to one part bleach after each cut. Dry the shears thoroughly once the job is complete, so that the rusting of blades will not occur.
