Problem with rose bush branches falling over

QuestionsProblem with rose bush branches falling over
Paddy Scully Staff asked 7 years ago

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.
