What is a Self-Cleaning Rose?
The term “self-cleaning” rose refers to the varieties of rose bushes that require no deadheading or pruning to clean up the old blooms and get them to bloom again. This also means that self-cleaning roses do not develop rose hips. Since these self-cleaning rose bushes do not develop rose hips, they start to bring forth another cycle of blooms just as soon as the previous blooms start to fade or drop petals. The only pruning or trimming self-cleaning rose bushes need is to keep them in the shape you desire for your rose bed or landscape design. The old bloom dries up and eventually falls away, but while it is doing so, the new blooms hide them with new bright blooms. Technically, self-cleaning roses are not truly self-cleaning, as some cleanup is required, just not as much as you would have with hybrid tea, floribunda, grandiflora, and shrub roses. Self-cleaning roses can make your rose garden far less of a chore when it comes to keeping it looking stunning.
