Upright grower pruning techniques

8 years ago

I am wondering how best to coax a very vertically-inclined plant like madame anisette into more of a full, rounded bush shape. I have a hedge of MAs, all now 2 years old, and they are about 7 feet tall and a foot wide that I would love to be more like 4x3. Even 6x6 wpuld be fine given their location along a fence. Will roses with thos growth habit naturally "round-out" in time, or do I need to prune them a certain way to encourage more lateral growth?
