Pruning Tea Roses

Mrs. Dudley Cross

Note that this post is about Tea roses, not Hybrid Teas! If you have Lady Hillingdon, Sombreuil, Gloire de Dijon or Mrs. Dudley Cross, you have a Tea rose, a type that was popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries. They have a loose, leggy growth that is a challenge to prune.

Here is a great article about pruning teas by Cassandra Bernstein: http://rosefog.us/PrunedRoses/PrunedRoses.htm
