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.http://www.bhg.com/gardening/flowers/roses/tips-for-pruning-roses/ -

I cut mine way back right before the first frost is expected. They come back with a vengeance in the spring. -

I cut mine back before the first frost and they come back in the spring with a vengeance. Don't be shy--- roses like to be pruned. It is good for them.
