Q: Is it OK to prune Knock Out® roses in the fall?
A: This is a fine time to tidy yours up. Remove empty sprays of flower buds, clip out long branches and remove any dead wood. Your plant won’t produce more flowers this year but it will be ready for any major pruning you do in February and it will be attractive for the winter.
