NEW Tyler roses

I just bought a bunch of roses (Yankee Doodle, Golden Glow, Blue Girl, Poinsetta, Mr. Lincoln, Christian Dior, Therese Bugnet, and a Pascali) for my mom and I that were shipped to a local store from Tyler Rose Garden.
After I prune the stalks/stems back to 6 inches do I need to do anything about the wax covering? How long will they take to start new growth? I bought ALOT of roses andflowers last spring from 2 local stores and the roses are doing awesome already this year for spring just beginning but, the rest of the flowers are gone. I spent way to much money on flowers last year. So this year I am going only roses (Tyler Roses). This brand is new to me so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

The wax covering will weather off by itself. Most roses by mail order will not need pruning, so be careful how much you cut off...it could damage them.
