How do I deadhead my rosebush?
My roses are in full bloom, but how do I deadhead them when they die? All of the petals blow off, so I am left with the piece attached to the braches--do I cut it off? TIA!

Go out and look at the bush. There should be a five leaf grouping right below the spent flower and you cut right above that.

But what if you have a cluster rosr tpyr bush??? It seems hard to figure out where to cut because stems seem to come out of less than 5 leaf groupings.
