| I have a rose bush where all the stems look dead, but there are green leaves coming from the bottom. If the branches are indeed dead... do I cut them all the way down to the bottom ? I live in colorado and it is May 15th |

| You can always cut off anything dead. Porkpal |

| OKay. It will be the whole bush. |

| In that case, the growth at the bottom might well be rootstock. It's common for rootstock to take off when the scion dies. YOU DON'T WANT IT. Buying a new rose is probably your best bet. |
