Question

My moss roses are becoming long and "staggly". Can they be cut back and reflower?

Answer 1

You can surely give them some shaping trimming.Remove some long and leggy growth and crossing branches. They should send out new growth. Cut to where you see an outside growing five leafed bud. Just don't do the cutting much later than this. You will want to let some rosehips set as we get towards fall.

Answer 2

Yes, they will have more roses, greener,and prettier.
