Key insights about video Gardening with Hank - Summer Rose Pruning

🌹 Pruning roses during the middle of July is called maintenance pruning.

🌹 Maintenance pruning involves removing dead roses that have already bloomed.

🌹 By removing the old roses, the plant's energy will be directed towards making the remaining blossoms bigger and prettier.

🌹 If the old roses are not removed, the plant will start forming rose hips, which are not desired for a flower garden.

🌹 As roses age, their color changes from golden yellow to pink to dark pink.

🌹 Deadheading roses involves cutting down the branch to the first leaflet with five leaves on it.

🌹 Wearing gloves when working with roses is recommended due to the presence of thorns.
