Hijra (for translations, see ) is a term given to eunuchs, intersex people, and transgender people in South Asia. They are also known as Aravani, Aruvani or Jagappa. In many languages of India, especially outside North-West India, other terms are used such as chhakka.
Prune rose trees in the early spring, when the plant is still dormant and free of its leaves. Remove all dead and diseased wood from the tree using pruning shears, which are capable of making cuts up to 3/4 inches in diameter.
September is the time to act. Roses should be pruned or groomed during the first 2 weeks in September--no later than September 20. Fall pruning is lighter than in the spring. Cut about 1/4 - 1/3 of the bush. When pruning miniatures, other than cleaning them out, simply cut off all the blooms.
