Too late to train?

17 years ago

Last year I bought a tiny own root Lillian Gibson hoping that one day I would train it to wrap around an obelisk which I had installed right next to the rose. Somehow, over the summer LG has morphed into a giant mess with canes sprawled out in every direction. I tried tying some of the canes in on the obelisk today but it just looked strange and unprofessional.

Should I let Lillian do her thing and give up on the training, or next spring should I hack off the canes that are growing in the wrong direction and try again?
