Hi, any root pruning on a rose bush is usually carried out at the time of planting, to remove any damaged roots, I have never known it to be carried out at any other time, Derek.

Why do you want to root prune it?

So it will keep growing in a container.

Hi, I think it would be better to get a bigger container, rather than root pruning, and all the root disturbance that it would of neccessity entail, Derek.
