Monty Don shares tips for pruning roses<\/h3>\n

November is a time many gardeners will be spending more time indoors away from the cold weather, but they keep an eye on their roses, as fungal diseases can sprout up this time of year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Black spot is one of the most serious diseases found in roses which will cause darkened spots on the leaves on the rose plant and then will eventually begin to shed. It is commonly spread in damp weather conditions, which are more likely in the autumn and wintertime.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While it is unlikely to kill a rose bush, it will make roses very vulnerable to other diseases, attract pests and can greatly weaken flowers, making it less likely they will survive the upcoming frosty weather.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It can be very difficult to get rid of black spot once it is in a garden, but luckily it is very easy to prevent it and keep roses healthy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hannah Rowson, the assistant manager at Parkers Garden Centre Mottram has said roses can be pruned in November as an effective way to \u201cprevent diseases.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hannah took to J. Parkers social media page to explain the best way to prune roses this time of year. She said: \u201cPrune [roses] between November and late February, maybe March. Just when it\u2019s dormant and before it grows any new buds.”<\/p>\n

She explained that when pruning, it is important that the centre of the rose plant is as open as possible in order to allow air circulation, which is an effective way to prevent diseases.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hannah said: \u201cAssess whether there are any dead branches, any diseased branches or any damaged ones, and remove these straight away. This will prevent further dieback.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnother thing to bear in mind is any crossing branches because these may become damaged as they grow later on.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
