| JB destroyed this one. I have them under control now and none of the rest were harmed as badly as this one. This one is right at my front door and looks horrible. Should I just cut it back? It has some new growth and I have cut it back some already but it looks terrible. |

| knockout roses are tough. The more you cut it back, the better it will look. I thought winter had killed mine, so i cut it back to the ground so I could dig it up. I got busy and didn't, and when I came back to do the deed, it had shoots … it is blooming right along now. It's a lot smaller, but it was reaching out and grabbing people, so I am pleased with it (but I hate pruning it. So many stickers) dave |

| Thanks Dave. I just went in and trimmed almost all of the "HOLY" leaves out but that left me with sticks so I will probably go ahead and cut it back. |
