I need help! I see from reading these comments I probably planted the WRONG type rose for my arbor gate...It is 3 years old and was doing beautifully until this year! It is growing absolutely WILD, I have to keep tying back long stems that hang down blocking the entrance..3-4 feet long!. They are getting very thick and I was afraid cutting them would kill the plant. Should I be cutting this to "train it, or move it and buy something else for the arbor? If I need to trim/cut it, when? Retired 5 years ago and started gardening, still learning!! The picture of them in bloom was this spring!!
