Accd to HMF it is a once bloomer, so I would do nothing at all now, let it leaf out and bloom, and then look at it again after it has finished blooming.

Looks a lot like the one I received from them. Huge Plants!!! I wasn't sure what to do either, do I stuck them in the ground and decided to deal with it later :)

Great! One less rose needing tending. I like that!
Tammy, were your canes all crazy?
Susan

Generally, leave it alone until you understand it a bit better. At some point, years in the future, old canes will need removed.

Susan, yes it definitely has some funky canes. I want to prune it, but it will have to wait until after it blooms. However, its not near anything, so I may just leave it as-is and let it do its species thing :)

Here's a picture of it (I sooo need to get some mulch delivered!)

Thanks Tammy. My canes are funkier than yours, I believe. Some of the canes have more curves than a kiddie coaster!
Can't wait to see it green up and bloom. Prickles are very different too.
