Rooting Rose Cuttings

DonnaA2Z Jacksonville, FL(Zone 9a) Jul 22, 2006

I'd like to know what you all think is the best way to root a rose bush cutting (no grafting). I've tried a few methods with only marginal results. They will even grow, but not root.

Thanks,
Donna

We had a long discussion of this very topic on the Rose Forum and Seedpicker_TX shared with us her method. I will add that I ha ve personally received 7 roses from her that she rooted and they were better plants than any other bareroot nursery like Heirloom or Uncommon Rose. She is not a nursery but she does a professional job. The roses she has sent to me have all thrived and bloomed this year.

Good Luck on your rooting efforts. Joann
