    My rose bushes were great the only problem is that the stems were so long and the best way to view the blooms was from my back bedroom window,I just wondered if I should lightly prune them this year would that help.

    Hi Arty I should prune them if they are rose bushes or are they climbers? unless you live in a Bungalow:But what a lovely view you have from the back bedroom window in the mornings:)
