Root stock suckers

8 years ago

You are supposed to rip them off,but what if they've already grown to the size of a mature cane? In my overly-large garden, I often don't get around to observing,let alone caring for, all of the roses all of the time, and this year I've been slacker than usual. I found a huge root-stock sucker on Frau Eva Schubert-the cane must've bee about two meters long. Fotuneately,and rather strangely, it was only sparsely leafed out,with rather small, stunted-looking leaves. I tried to pull it off but no way could I get the base of it. So what should I do now?
