Constant pruning is very important garden chore in caring for your rose garden. You have to cut dead canes and unhealthy growths as soon as they appear so they will not steal nutrients from the healthier canes. Also dead blooms need to be removed to encourage the roses to produce more flowers. Regular pruning also airs out the rose plants, letting the air circulate more freely and discourage the growth of disease-causing germs and mold.
Roses also hate the cold season they need to be protected in the winter. So that your rose garden would see the coming spring time in a healthy way.
Caring for your roses can be a laborious task, especially if you are growing different kinds of roses. But the rewards would be worth it when you see a beautiful bounty of blooming rose flowers. After all The rose is the queen of all the flowers.

Your rose gardening work might have been affected by extreme weather conditions, or maybe diseases and viruses. The mosaic disease affect about 9 of 10 rose gardens and if your roses have block spots they are as infectious as the common cold.
But don’t worry. There are several precautionary measures you can take in order to protect your precious roses.

Cleanliness:Clean your rose beds, remove dead leaves, fallen debris, grass clipping and so on...
Hygiene: Don't just clip away the dead
stems and leaves you must also brush them away from the rose beds and dispose of them in trash cans or recycle for later use.
Regular Pruning: Some gardeners will only prune the sides of rose bushes without really thinking about what is going on inside. You need to prune within the bush as well so that enough air is circulated to the inner flowers, leaves, and stems.
Plug the Cuts: Remember if you prune your roses, and
you leave behind exposed inner area of stems. You need to seal them up with a special plant glue so that diseases and other insects cannot erodeor eat away the delicate inner parts.

1.Rose Pruning Shears - You’ll need this tool almost everyday and it comes in 2 varieties. A bypass pruner looks somewhat like a scissor and is more preferable to an anvil pruner because it doesn’t seem to crush the tender stems of a rose. The blades of an anvil pruner meet on top and are stronger than a bypass pruner.
2.Rose Gardening Loppers - Well, you won’t need these if you are just kick-starting your rose garden. These babies are much more efficient than both the pruning shears and are required when the stems of the roses become much stronger and thicker. Don’t waste your money buying these right away, just wait for a few years when your roses have become more mature.
3.Rose Gardening Shovels - Select one with padded handles which just might save you a few bruises. Also, see if you can buy one made out of fiberglass as that tends to be more lightweight, yet it is sufficiently strong to do the down and d
irty work.
4. Garden Wheel Barrows - Yep, quite Enid Blyton but equally essential. Avoid those cutesy girly ‘carts’ and buy a sturdy one. As your rose gardening hobby grows, you’ll need a durable wheelbarrow to lug stuff in and out of the garden.
5. Rose Gardening Gloves and Pads - And again, select industrial strength gloves because roses have prickly thorns. Kneeling pads are required to keep the pressure off your knees.
You can select between waterproof pads with handles or perhaps pads with velcro straps.
6. Water System- Without some kind of water system
your roses witl wilt and die. Important to water your roses
on a consitant bases in order to grow thriving roses.
