You can leave them alone. It won't hurt them. If you don't care for the look you can prune them back some too when you dead head. That won't hurt them either. Just remember that pruning stimulates new growth and rebloom!

You can also stake them up and they will grow stouter in time. I just did that for my floppy little 'Bolero'. All the leaves help to create growth energy for the plant.

Hi seil and michael.
Thanks for your quick replies. Okay, I'll just leave them as is and if they seem to sprawl too much I'll stake them up a bit. Michael, thanks for the explanation about the leaves. Does that apply to all roses?

How do you stake them please?

I just use ordinary bamboo garden stakes you can get anywhere, you can cut them to the length you need, and garden twine. Sink the stake in the ground opposite the canes you want to lift and tie one end of the string to it. Carefully thread the string underneath the canes and gently lift them to the position you want them in and tie the other end of the string to the stake. You can use one stake and thread through several canes or use separate stakes for each cane. It's up to you.

Perfect! Thx Seil
