Should I prune my hybrid tea rose even if it is in bud. The forecast is for frost for the next few nights. It is healthy,

Question

The Rose is Fragrant Plum

Answer 1

You can wrap the rose loosely with a large towel and place a large trash bag over it at night. The towel insulates it from the cold and the plastic bag prevents moisture from getting the insulating towel wet. Any similar form of protection against the frost is fine. There is no need to prune at this time.
