pruning Alba Semi-Plena and Tuscany Superb

We are in the middle of an amazing spring.After more than a decade of drought we had a wet, wet winter and I now know why my roses were smaller than I expected. They were thirsty!

In my ignorant enthusiasm I've overplanted. My back garden is a beautiful forest.

Alba Semi-Plena and Tuscany used to be neibours. Now they are intertwined in a wonderful, but unsustainable mound. I love the look of them together.

When they finish flowering, how hard can I cut them back? Chainmail might be required for the job. I would hate to overdo it and lose them.

I'm so glad it wasn't Alfalfa tea that they needed.

Our climate is probably warm temperate, but in Melbourne you never know what to expect.
