I have 3 rose bushes in the front of my house New last summer.. they produce 3-4 roses each.. my husband cut them down to about 6 inches tall in the fall and already they are coming back fuller looking

Trim in the spring or fall: remove any dead wood, trim back green stems by clipping just above an outward facing leaf bud.
