Q.pruning floribunda rose
It is April in Ohio, is it to late to prune my floribunda rose bush? It has a few red leaves coming on and I don’t want to kill the cane if it is.
Thank you.

It is not too late to prune your rosebush and shape it a bit as to how you want the bush to look and grow. Remember to seal the cut ends of the canes with some white Elmers glue or Tacky Glue. That helps keep the cane boring insects from causing problems. They will do just fine with lots of growing season left.
