hybrid teas are pruned low to promote vigorous new shoots.
To start with, cut out dead, diseased, rubbing and crossing stems. If the bush is crowded cut out some old shoots completely to keep the centre open.
Then
Shorten back the strongest remaining shoots to four to six buds 10-15cm (4-6in) from the base, to the point where last year’s growth began Cut just above a bud pointing in the direction you want the new growth.
Shorten back less vigorous shoots to two to four buds 5-10cm (2-4in) from the base
Cut out all three year old wood, leaving only younger more vigorous growths, which produce better flowers
