Roses grown from seed.
in Plants
Hi, i grew these two Rose bushes from seed in 2010.started them off in pots,then gradually increased the size of pot until they became potbound in the largest pot, and last autumn i transplanted them into the ground where they have put on quite a lot of growth since.They have nearly finished flowering with just a few flowers left at the top, the bottom leaves are yellowing.What i would like to know is when do i cut them back and how far.When they were in pots i just used to trim them a little and tidy them up because was afraid to cut them back too much, but they did look a bit straggley but since putting them in the ground they became bushier and i would like to keep them this way.so could anyone please advise. Many thanks Elizabeth.

Thanks for your advice Waterbutts.I think they are Floribundas,They are about 3 feet tall at the moment.I hav,nt got the instruction packet anymore and cannot remember how tall they grow.
Thanks Waterbutts, i,ve just done what you said and they look much tidier now,so fingers crossed hopefully they will produce more blooms.
