it told me on the care instructions to cut the stems but my scissors nor my sharpest knife could cut through them and i didn't want to hurt myself.

Don't keep them to near the heat they last longer in a cool place as for cutting the stems if you cannot do that you could crush them but only slightly. clean water every day helps also a small amount of sugar helps about a quarter of a tea spoon full. I hope this helps you an that you can enjoy them for a long time.

make sure that they get plenty of sunlight,air water.
Prune roses in early spring once the rose starts to show signs of new growth, usually in the form of tiny red buds swelling. These buds will become new branches.
Step2
Cut out any obviously dead or damaged branches first. Then cut out all but four or five healthy stems, each ideally about as thick as a pencil.
Step3
Cut the rose bush back by 1/3 to 1/2, depending on how tall you want it to be. Make these cuts right above an outward facing bud – that is, a red bud that's on the outside of the rose bush. This directs the bud to grow up and out, leaving the center of the rose bush open for a prettier shape and better air circulation.
Step4
Fertilize roses regularly during the growing season. Roses are hungry plants, demanding lots of nutrients for best growth and flowering. Each rose grower has his or her own favorite method. One of the easiest is to buy a slow-release granular rose food and work it into the soil so it can feed the plant all season long. Otherwise, you'll want to fertilize the rose with a liquid fertilizer every three to four weeks during the growing season (stop in early autumn) or according to package directions.
Step5
Water diligently. Roses need a steady source of water during the growing season, about 1 inch a week from rain or watering. In arid regions of the country, if you have several roses, consider installing a do-it-yourself drip irrigation system.
Summer Rose Care
Step1
Mulch. Roses need less weeding and watering and have fewer diseases if you mulch. Lay down 1 to 2 inches of organic mulch, such as wood chips, pine needles, grass clippings or other biodegradable material.
Step2
Deadhead. This simply means trimming spent roses off the shrub to encourage it to produce more. While some roses bloom only in one big flush in June, others are bred to keep producing off and on all season long.
Step3
Spray. If your rose becomes diseased or has an insect infestation, you may want to deal with it by spraying. (However, first try simply trimming off the diseased portion of the plant and giving the plant a good strong blast from a hose.) If you choose to spray, first identify the problem by trimming off the diseased part and taking it to a reliable garden center, where the staff can prescribe the correct pesticide or herbicide.
Fall and Winter Rose Care
Step1
Stop fertilizing roses in early autumn, at least one month before your region's first annual frost date. Fertilizing too long into autumn encourages roses to produce tender new growth that will get nipped by cold.
Step2
Protect roses as needed in late autumn, after your region's first hard freeze. In regions where temperatures don't fall below 20 degrees F (USDA zone 9 and warmer), no additional winter protection is needed. In cooler regions where temperatures don't fall below 10 degrees below zero (zones 6 to 8), a simple mounding of several inches of soil over the base of the rose should suffice. In cold-winter regions where temperatures get colder than 10 degrees below zero (zone 5 and colder), mound to about a foot about a month after your region's last average frost date; additionally, two weeks later, the entire plant should be wrapped in burlap to protect the upper parts.

What month is good to start caring for my roses again?

I have about 10-12 large rose bushes and about 3-4 (possibly more) mini roses and there is a PRS(Portland Rose Society) Rose show coming up and I wasn't able to enter last year so I want to know what month would be best to start caring for them to get the best out of them. Also if its possible, are there any greener rose foods, pest killers, etc. that won't harm the earth or my roses? I appreciate any help I can get. Thanks!

Now is an ideal time to start, before the main spring growth spurt. You can source and collect your products, and then prune them. Pruning is the best tool for production of great roses, as it really introduces vigour to them, focusing their energy into the shoots that you can get blooms with maximum quality, rather than lots of weaker growth and smaller, poorer flowers. Destroy any prunings that may be infected with anything, as this would transfer to the new growth. Likewise, collect fallen leaves from around your plants, as these can harbor spores etc.
For good growth, i would mulch with well rotted manure, which will keep the roots moister, and release nutrients. Ensure there are no competing weeds too.
You can keep pests at bay with environmentally safer products. Aphids and fungal problems are the most wide-spread issues. Aphids can be killed with insecticidal soap, sprayed on. Black spot and rust prevention is best started early too, and you can use diluted baking soda to help with this and mildew, or other treatments. Foliage and bloom quality will all affect your show results, so attending to foliage is important.
Hope this helps. Good luck! Rob
