I can definitely see how the horizontal positioning produces more flowering shoots. I'm still confused about what I've read elsewhere about the necessity of removing old canes. My question is: will I eventually need to remove the main vertical structural canes, or can they remain forever? If I wrap new canes around the old ones they'll have to stay, won't they?
