Pruning roses around Valentine's Day in mid February is the recommended time in this area. Recommendations include pruning and removing all leaves and dispose of them to limit rose diseases. Fertilize with a rose fertilizer after pruning. You could also spray for fungal diseases or use a rose product that has an insecticide and fungicide included with the fertilizer. (3 in 1 product.)
