I am an old person but new gardener. I have some drift
roses, planted this summer in SC and want to know when and how to prune them and feed them. Thanks for any advice.

I’ve always pruned roses down about one third of its height. The best time to prune them, is on or about Valentines day. That is in central Texas. I feed mine all year with compost. It builds the soil too.
