Over-pruning can lead to stress for the plant, resulting in reduced growth and vigor. It may cause the plant to become more susceptible to pests and diseases due to weakened defenses. In extreme cases, over-pruning can even kill the plant, as it may not have enough foliage to photosynthesize effectively. Additionally, it can lead to an unbalanced or unattractive shape as the plant struggles to recover.

Should you prune a climbing rose?

You can prune climbing roses to 'train' them to grow the way you want them to. If you want them to grow up a trellis, or over an arch, etc., then you need to prune them in the shape or direction in which you want them to grow. You also need to prune away dead parts to allow for new growth. And it will not harm the rose bush to prune it; the root system will continue to grow, which can produce an even more beautiful, healthier plant.
