If so, can I do it spring?

    Hi Charlene,

    Yes you can shape your rose into a hedge. It is time now. The marker for trimming/pruning is President's Day.


    Snip to the shape you want a little above a leaf node (a little red bump that will branch into leaves soon) at a 45 degree angle.


    As as a note- rise hedges are usually many rose bushes in a row. They make a beautiful hedge.
