I got this rose bush as a present at the beginning of the Summer, so I don't know what variety it is. It has been easy to look after so far (I have no experience) and has bloomed twice. I'm wondering what the best thing to do for it is now that the weather is getting colder.

Can you please tell me when is best to prune this. I am getting conflicting advice on internet. It is about 15ft high and has really thrived but it needs some control. It has blossomed already. Do I wait till winter or can I cut back now? I don't want to jeapordize next years display. Also, how far back do I prune? I am a new comer to roses and really enjoying it.

we have four David Austin shrub roses very vigorous and floriferous. every may/june as they are growing strongly, branches which start from low down on the bushes fall over at the point where they grow from the main stem, and die. is it something i am doing when i pruned? with the heavy rain and wind this last week it has been worse than ever.

The picture attached is a Galway Bay rose I planted late last year. It is growing well. My Dad (RIP) was always concerned about rose suckers. He said it was very important to remove them. The Rose Expert book says that "if nothing is done to check this growth then suckers may take over the plant completely and the bush will have reverted". What does this mean? And more importantly, is the one in the picture a sucker?

I bought a climber rose about 6 years ago and it used to flower with lovely red flowers. I'd cut it back every year. But over the last two years it's gone very strange. Last year it had pink flowers and very few red. This year it's just bolted and no sign of any bud at all. Is it time to dig it out? Any advice would be great. Im sorry I don't know the name of the rose.
