    In general, you will be pruning just before the plant breaks dormancy after spring's final frost. This will be early in the year in warm climates, and anytime between January and April in cold climates. If it's old roses you are tending, prunethem after blooming. They bear flowers on last year's wood

    You should not prune the bush just yet,wait until it has finished flowering for the season.
