Gardening

There is also so problem with cutting it back really far. I cut my Aloha rose down to about 6 inches early spring, and it is six foot high by summer---every year. A neighbor who was a rose connoisseur taught me to cut them short every late winter/early spring.

And just to let you know how hardy many roses are, I dug my rose bush out and threw it away....but must have left some root behind because it came back after two years and is as big as ever. (Note on this, my rose was not a graft, it was started from a cutting that was just stuck in the ground.)
