How to grow a rose in a pot at home. How to grow roses. How to grow roses from rose cuttings

Every girl at least once in her life received a bouquet of roses, but not every one of them guessed that a new rose could be grown from just one cutting. Today we will talk about how to plant and grow roses.

How to plant and grow a rose from a bouquet (from a cutting)

Most women think that it would be nice to keep roses forever, but how to do it? You do not want to dry the flowers, because it is their natural beauty that attracts. But the girls still try to grow new flowers from those in the bouquet. It’s just that it’s not completely clear - is there any chance of growing a new flower from a bouquet? This does not always work, but very often. If you use rose cuttings, you can grow new flowers, but the chances are not too high, about 25% for success. Detailed instructions below:
  • Cut the central part of the stem into cuttings with a length of at least 12-14 centimeters, leave three buds. From below, you need to cut the stem at a 45 degree angle below the kidney by a centimeter. Leave the top cut straight, it should be a centimeter above the kidney.

  • Shorten the upper leaves of the cutting by 1/3, and cut the thorns and lower leaves.

  • Burn the top cut with brilliant green or potassium permanganate.

  • Use growth preparations or aloe juice to nourish the cuttings for 12 hours straight.

  • Next, buy a drug that accelerates the appearance of roots. Take the cutting and lower it into the powder with the bottom part, this will start the process of root growth.

  • Select fertile soil in advance, lower the cutting into it. But first you need to put sand on the ground with a layer of about three centimeters. Do not plant cuttings too deep, the maximum depth is 2 centimeters.

  • Prepare plastic bottles, water the cuttings first, and then cover with bottles. You need to water by adding liquid to the neck.

  • When a bud forms, you need to quickly cut it off.

  • If you removed the cuttings to the greenhouse, paint the glass of the greenhouse with white paint or cover the glass with lutrasil.

  • Cuttings can grow directly under the bottles, in which case you need to cover them with some material, but without the content of tissue. After a month, you can remove the cloth and bottles so that the cuttings get used to the clean air.

  • As soon as the growth of the cuttings accelerates, you need to start looking for a place for a permanent planting. By that time, the cuttings will already be ready for life in the fresh air.

  • If you don't have a dacha, it doesn't mean that you can't grow roses from a bouquet. You can always root cuttings in a flowerpot, but buy soil for roses.

  • During rooting, use fluorescent lamps so that the cuttings are not left without light. When rooting, the most ideal temperature is 25 degrees.

  • Don't forget to spray the cuttings if you're growing them indoors, as a lot depends on it. The first 14 days you need to spray at least seven times a day, but do not overdo it, the soil should not be wet, but you must give it a certain amount of moisture. After two weeks, spraying can be reduced.

  • Next, spray no more than three times a day, but keep in mind that drying out the substrate in the pot will adversely affect the growth of roses.

  • Thanks to this, you can grow roses from a bouquet.


But you need to take into account some of the nuances when growing roses. For example, the darker the rose petals, the brighter and tastier the aroma, besides, the thickness of the petals decides a lot. If the petals are incredibly dense and thick, the aroma will be much better, and the climate also affects it. If the air is dry and warm, the fragrance of flowers intensifies, and if it is cold and humid, it weakens. Also, do not overdo it with the amount of fertilizer, too much fertilizer reduces the attractiveness of the aroma of roses.

How to grow roses from seeds

You need to start preparing for sowing roses in February, but first, purchase the Epina-Extra solution and process all the rose seeds. This is easy to do: take a glass and pour 100 milliliters of clean water, then add 3-4 drops of this drug, then add the seeds there for less than a day. But in very rare cases, it will be necessary to carry out stratification before sowing. You will need a container in which to add peat and river sand. Add some water to the soil and seeds, but not too deep, a depth of 5 millimeters is enough. Then you need to slightly press down the soil. Wrap the container with rose seeds in a tight plastic bag and store for 14 days at a temperature of 20-25 degrees, then move the container to another place where the temperature is 5-7 degrees for about a month or a half. Remove the bag periodically to allow clean air to reach the seeds.

After seed treatment, they can germinate even earlier, for example, after a month. When they germinate, you need to remove the container to a room in which sunlight penetrates well. But keep in mind that direct sunlight harms the seeds. Seedlings need to be sprinkled with water at a temperature of 20-25 degrees. In the future, the seedlings will have two leaves, of course, if you do not take into account the cotyledons, select the strongest plants and plant them in other pots. To do this, you need to stock up on a soil mixture from a part of humus, sand, and soddy soil. If it is very warm outside, take the seeds outside so they get enough oxygen, but put them in a place that does not get direct sunlight. It is advisable to plant plants in the ground, but without damaging the earthy coma. You need to add water when the earth begins to dry, but the water should have a temperature of 20 degrees. Too much liquid has a negative effect primarily on small roses. If you grow roses from seeds, you will see flowering 2-3 years from the start of sowing. But in this case, you may notice that the plant variety is not quite what you expected.

Other tips for growing roses at home or in the country

Just like other plants, roses can get sick due to microorganisms and bacteria. It is necessary to fight against aphids, sawfly, spider mites and so on. To kill aphids, you need to use water with the addition of soap when spraying. This procedure is repeated every week once. But you can buy feverfew and process roses with it. To prepare the solution, you need to mix 200 grams of pyrethrum with 10 liters of water, and then leave it overnight. Next, 50 milliliters of tincture is mixed with 10 liters of water, at the end 30-50 grams of soap are added.

To get rid of spider mites and aphids, you can make an extract of garlic, just crush 50 grams of garlic and add to 200 milliliters of cold water. After 20 minutes, strain it all and add a liter of clean water. You will need one glass per bucket of water to wash the plant. Carry out the procedure in cloudy weather or in the evening.

For prevention, you can add granite dust to the soil in the spring or add ash to the soil, this is the most common recommendation found in rose care literature. The most unpleasant infectious disease of a rose is powdery mildew, to get rid of it, you need to get rid of the infected parts of the plant. Next, the roses need to be sprayed with a special preparation that contains a lot of copper and sulfur, for example, a solution of soda ash with soap. This treatment is carried out once a week.

You can only transplant roses in August, you will need to plant roses in pots from the ground, so you get a potted plant. In this situation, the transplanted roses will already take root by winter, so flowering will begin next spring. It is undesirable to transplant in the spring, since in the summer they will begin to take root, and flowering will begin only next year. To transplant, you need to take small pots, because large pots provoke a slow drying of the earth, which leads to souring and rotting of the roots. Most large pots do not look very attractive, because the plant is covered with a huge amount of leaves, through which flowers are not visible. It is advisable to grow potted plants in small flowerpots, periodically replanting them in a mixture of earth with a saturated nutrient composition.

Also do not forget to add fertilizer to roses for better growth. If roses are growing, and you have planned a transplant, you need to keep the whole earth ball so that the roots of the plant do not suffer, this is very important. If you do everything carefully, repot plants during the summer season. Water the plants moderately and keep them in the shade for one week, this will improve the rooting process.

To give a certain appearance to the bushes and change their shape, you need to cut the roses. This will improve the flowering of the plant when the cold comes, but only if the flowers grow in open ground. To do this is simple, you need to get rid of underdeveloped branches. Further, five strong shoots are kept on the bush, which have an average growth and the simplest development. In the event that the wood has matured well enough, you need to cut them off and keep three or five eyes on all shoots. If the roses curl too much, you need to cut out only the extra and withered branches. In the spring, you need to prune dwarf multicolor roses that have large flowers, remove at least 3-5 eyes. If you remove three eyes from small-flowered varieties of roses, they will grow much better. Buds appear on annual shoots, but growth is discontinuous throughout the growing season.

What could be more beautiful than a fresh, blossoming rose bud, yes, and not somewhere in a flower bed or lawn, but on your windowsill? To breed a real rose garden in your apartment, you may only need to know how to properly care for a whimsical plant so that it pleases you with its flowering longer.

Roses in culture

The first roses began to be grown and selected by the ancient Romans. In the works of ancient Roman writers that have survived to this day, about ten varieties are mentioned, today their number is measured in hundreds of names.

Rose is the collective name of varieties and species of plants of the rosehip genus, which have long been grown by people. Most of the currently existing varieties of climbing and spray roses are obtained by selection, through multiple crossings and painstaking selection, while some varieties are variations on the forms of wild species.

Classification - varieties and species

The need for a garden classification system is due to the development of the science of selection. Acquaintance with the classifier makes it possible for breeders to continue their work on breeding new varieties of the “queen of flowers”, and for amateur flower growers to properly care for their very capricious green pets. Without going too far into the abyss of breeding science, all currently existing species can be divided into several groups and classes, depending on the presence of stable garden traits.

The first version of the classifier was created and approved by the American Rose Society in 1976. In 2000, the classifier was published in Modern Roses in a slightly modified and supplemented form. In accordance with this version, all roses can be divided into the following types: old, wild and modern garden, with subsequent gradation into certain groups depending on the color and number of petals.

Flower garden on your windowsill

Growing roses at home is a painstaking task, which only an experienced grower can handle. In order for a green pet to feel great and regularly delight you with its flowering, the plant needs to create comfortable conditions for growth. First of all, it must be remembered that the rose bush is thermophilic, which means that it is necessary to place flower pots in places where sunlight often peeks.

The frequency of flowering depends entirely on the amount of sunlight, while it is important to observe the optimal temperature regime, which varies between 15-20 C. The air should be moderately humid, which is why it is recommended to spray the stems and leaves of the flower with water several times during the day. Watering must be done daily.It is best if you use settled water for these purposes, which flower growers recommend periodically pouring into the pot tray.

A few words must be said about the choice of pot and soil. The container should be spacious with the obligatory presence of drainage holes. On the bottom of the pot, you also need to lay some pebbles, and then humus or peat, river sand, clay and black soil should be placed on top of this layer.

Important: humus or peat should be at least 50%, sand - 15% and black soil - about 20%. Please note that rose bushes in alkaline soil quickly wither and often get sick.

Reproduction of rose bushes Houses

Landing can be done in several ways:

  • using seeds;
  • vaccination method;
  • cuttings.

The most optimal and effective method of the above is the cultivation of roses from cuttings. In order for the breeding procedure to be successful for the cutting, you need to choose a stem with a formed bud.

Such samples are the most resistant, since they contain the maximum possible amount of nutrients needed for the development of the plant's root system. Undoubtedly, there are cases when it was possible to grow a rose bush from a flower included in an ordinary store bouquet, but such precedents are very rare.

So, when choosing a cutting for planting, you need to pay attention to its length, its optimal indicator is about 30 cm. Next, you need to make an incision at a minimum angle of inclination, remove the bud and leaves with a sharp knife.

After performing these manipulations, the stalk should be left for 10-15 minutes in a container of water. Next, you need to process the sections (lower and upper) with potassium permanganate. Before planting the cutting in the ground, the preparation process of which is described in detail above, it must be kept for a day in a weak solution of heteroauxin. To prepare the solution, it is recommended to adhere to the following proportions: 1 tablet per 1 liter of settled water. Heteroauxin can be replaced with potassium permanganate.

After planting the cutting, you need to create a greenhouse. For this purpose, you can use plastic wrap or a cut plastic bottle. Watering, spraying should be carried out daily, but in such a way that the root system does not rot.

After some time, when the first leaves appear on the handle, the greenhouse can be removed. To strengthen the root system, flower growers recommend cutting buds in the first year after the growing season.

Diseases and pests

Rose bushes sometimes get sick and are attacked by pests. There can be two reasons why your green, once full of health pet began to wither before our very eyes: frequent watering, leading to rotting of the root system (“black leg” effect), pests.

Very often, rose bushes become victims of the "spider mite". In this case, the appearance of a thin cobweb wrapping around the stems and leaves will be an alarm signal for you.

Such a mite literally sucks all the forces out of the plant, and is also the causative agent of many diseases. In order to get rid of the spider mite, it is necessary to treat the plant with special drugs, 3-4 times with an interval of several days.

And one more piece of advice...Growing rose bushes in a city apartment is possible only if you follow all the above recommendations for caring for them.

Remember to water your pet regularly, as well as feed it periodically. The frequency of feeding depends on the stage of flowering. If the bush blooms, it is recommended to feed it once every two weeks.






The home queen of flowers rightfully occupies one of the leading positions in indoor floriculture: a unique aroma, bright flowers of various colors against the backdrop of lacy foliage give an authentic charm to this plant.

Miniature roses are considered capricious plants: it may seem to inexperienced flower growers that indoor roses make truly royal demands when grown at home.

However, not everything is so sad - just caring for them is somewhat different from the agricultural technology of garden roses.

Subject to certain rules, roses in pots will delight with their flowering and fragrance.

Indoor rose: types and varieties suitable for growing at home

In residential areas, roses are planted as potted crops. miniature(varieties Hi - Ho, Lavender Jewel, Amulett, Apricot, Sunblaze, Green Ice, Mandarin, Stars'n'Stripes, Spice Drop);

Hybrid Tea(Apricot Silk, Gloria Dei, Peer Gynt, Prima Ballerina, Pascali, Nostalgie, Monika, Deep Secret);

Repairing;

Bengal(Ophelia, Pink Grotendors);

ground covers(The Fairy, Alba, Meillandecor, Magic).

For tub growing can be used polyanthus roses (Angel wings, Gloria Mundi, Betty Prior) and floribunda(Tchaikovski, Edelweiss, Pomponella, Happy Child, Cream Abundance).

If you plan to cultivate dwarf varieties of garden roses at room conditions, then you need to take own-rooted bushes: plants grafted onto wild rose will not grow at home.

Indoor rose: home care - reproduction, transplantation

reproduction

Indoor roses are propagated vegetatively. To do this, you can use the remaining branches after trimming. They are cut into pieces about 15 cm long with 3-4 buds. Root cuttings in water or in a peat-sand mixture. An activated charcoal tablet is added to the water. You can soak the cuttings in a solution of Kornevin or Heteroauxin. As a natural root formation stimulator, you can use an infusion of willow branches. To do this, yellow or green shoots are cut into small pieces 5-6 cm long and poured with hot water. The infusion will be ready in a day. Roots appear in 2-3 weeks. After that, the seedlings are planted in separate pots.

Rooting cuttings of indoor roses in water

When rooting cuttings in the substrate, they are covered with jars or placed in a greenhouse. The appearance of new leaves is a signal of the appearance of roots. Young plants should be accustomed to room conditions gradually.

Transfer

Transplant indoor roses in early spring or late August. A potted rose bought in a store before transplanting should be given time to adapt to the new living conditions. Two or three weeks will be enough for this. After the end of the adaptation period, the plant can be transplanted into a new pot. Its dimensions should not be much larger than the parameters of the previous vessel: 5 cm in height and 2-3 cm in diameter. Too much capacity will contribute to acidification of the soil and rotting of the root system. If another plant used to grow in this vessel, then it must be disinfected. A rose bush in a transport pot is watered to make it easier to take it out and not damage the roots.

At the bottom of the pot, a layer of drainage is poured, on top of it is a small layer of fresh soil.

After transshipment, the plant is kept in partial shade, the soil is moderately moistened. After a couple of days, you can rearrange the plant to a permanent place.

Root or foliar feeding of roses begins a month after transplantation.

Roses in pots: home care - soil, lighting, temperature and humidity

Temperature and humidity

In residential areas, the air is usually dry, so indoor roses during the growing season should be sprayed twice a day with settled water. To increase the humidity in the zone of the rose crown, it is placed in a tray with wet fractional filler (the bottom of the pot should not come into contact with water). If the weather is cloudy, then you can not spray. With the beginning of the period of active growth (since February), the temperature in the room where the home rose grows is gradually increased from + 14ºС to + 25ºС. In summer, you can put a pot of roses outdoors. During the dormant period (October-February), the rose is kept at + 5-8ºС.

The soil

For a home rose, loose fertile soil is needed. It can be made independently by mixing equal parts of humus, garden or soddy soil, sand, peat. In stores, you can buy a ready-made substrate for roses (the line of soils Garden of Miracles, Gera, Agricola, Biopit, Ponon).

Lighting

Indoor roses are photophilous. The best for their location will be the southeast and southwest window sills. On the southern windows in the summer with intense sunlight, flowering will take place in an accelerated mode, and the plant quickly loses its decorative effect. Therefore, if it is not possible to rearrange the rose pot in a suitable place, then it is better to shade it. With a short daylight hours (in the northern regions), additional lighting will not be superfluous. For supplementary illumination, LED and fluorescent phytolamps with a red-blue spectrum are used (such household lamps give less suitable spectral components of light, therefore they are less suitable for this purpose).

Additional illumination of plants with phytolamps with a red-blue spectrum

For the uniform development of the crown of the rose bush, the pot must be turned a little daily.

Rose: home care - feeding and watering

Watering

Indoor roses are very sensitive to watering. The amount and volume of watering depends on the type of roses and the growing season. Roses are watered abundantly in summer, gradually reducing the amount of watering in autumn and winter. Excess water is removed from the pan.

Important! At any time during the life of a room rose, it is not recommended to overmoisten or overdry an earthen lump in a pot. Do not water roses with cold water.

top dressing

In spring and summer, indoor roses are fed every 2 weeks immediately after watering. The best effect for abundant flowering is obtained by alternating organic and mineral fertilizers specially created for roses, of which there are a large number on sale (for example, the Joy, Pokon, Bona forte series, Agricola, Realsil, Garden of Miracles, Fertika, etc.). From the end of summer, the number of dressings is reduced, because. the rose is preparing for a dormant period.

pruning

Indoor roses are pruned in September, when they begin to prepare them for "rest". 5 buds are left on the shoots, the rest is cut off. The leaves are left. Weak, dried and thin branches are cut out on the bush. If pruning is not carried out, then the shoots are stretched, the duration and quality of flowering is reduced.

rose pruning

rest period

To bookmark flower buds for the next season, the indoor rose needs a rest period. To do this, after flowering plants at the end of summer, stop feeding and reduce the amount of watering. A pot with a rose is placed in a cool room (+ 4-6ºС). If this is not possible, then the plant is kept on the windowsill at a temperature of + 10-14ºС. In February, to "awaken" roses, they begin to gradually increase watering and move the plant to a warmer place (+ 15-18ºС).

The main problems when caring for home roses

The most common problem when growing indoor roses are spider mites. They breed “stormy activity” on plants weakened by improper care. The leaves of the rose grow dull, in places where they are bitten by ticks, characteristic yellowish dots appear on them. The fight against these pests must be systemic, otherwise new generations of insects become resistant to the drugs used (Fitoverm, Aktellik, Vermitek), it becomes even more difficult to eliminate them. Ticks multiply intensively at elevated temperatures and low humidity. Therefore, for prevention, rose bushes must often be sprayed with settled water, give them a warm shower.

Another frequent "guests" of roses are whitefly And aphid. For their destruction, insecticides are used (Fitoverm, Aktara).

With the wrong watering regime, roses are affected by fungal diseases. powdery mildew progresses in cold and damp stagnant air. A whitish powdery coating appears on the leaves, they dry out and fall off. In this case, the plant must be treated with a solution of fungicide, colloidal sulfur or copper sulfate, and its affected parts removed.

Signs of another fungal disease of roses - rust - is the appearance of reddish-brown spots on the leaves of the rose. Sick bushes do not develop well. They are treated with copper oxychloride, ferrous sulfate or Bordeaux mixture or other fungicides.

If brown, almost black, merging spots form on the leaves of a room rose, this indicates a damage to the rose. black spot (marsonine).

Black spotted leaves of a room rose

This disease appears when there is a lack of nutrients in the soil and its waterlogging. At the same time, the leaves of the rose dry up and fall off, the plant weakens, stops growing and blooming. To combat spotting, the damaged parts of the bush are removed, the plant is sprayed with copper-containing preparations, and watering is reduced.

Often flower growers are faced with the fact that indoor roses turn yellow and fall leaves. This may be for the following reasons:

Pests;

Diseases;

natural aging;

Nutrient deficiencies, especially during flowering, which deplete the plant. So, a lack of potassium causes the appearance of yellow spots on the leaf blade. Yellowness between the green veins (chlorosis) occurs with a lack of iron. In this case, the rose will be “brought back to life” by spraying with iron chelate. If there is no nitrogen, then the leaves first turn pale, and then turn yellow and fall off;

An overabundance of fertilizers;

drafts;

A sharp change in the microclimate of the room (for example, when a purchased plant was carried home from a store or an apartment move). During the period of adaptation to the new place of residence of the rose, it is necessary for her to organize optimal conditions for keeping;

Low air humidity;

Overdrying or waterlogging of the soil;

Too bright sunlight.

Another common undesirable phenomenon in the behavior of indoor roses is scanty or complete lack of flowering and dropping buds. This happens for the following reasons:

Pests;

Untimely pruning or its complete absence;

Dry air in the room;

Errors in irrigation mode: use of cold water, overdrying of the substrate or excessive moisture;

Insufficient lighting;

Premature transplant: during budding or flowering, the rose should not be transplanted, it is better to do this after flowering;

Lack of lighting;

Lack of top dressing or their incorrect dosage;

Insufficient humidity and air temperature in the room;

No dormant period.

There are different ways to propagate roses, but we will focus on the most popular = from a cutting. Very often we manage to get a cutting of a plant we like, and what to do with it next so that it does not die is unknown. We will help you grow beautiful flowers from rose cuttings.

You can even grow a rose from a bouquet at home by properly rooting the cutting.

How to propagate roses from cuttings

This is a simple method, consisting in cutting cuttings with three buds and then rooting them. But questions arise how to properly make cuttings, is it possible to root cuttings in water?

For cuttings, the middle or upper part of a healthy tree shoot, which is already finishing flowering, is best suited. Using a special garden knife or pruner, it is necessary to cut the shoots, 10-15 centimeters long, each of which must have at least 3 buds. You need to cut them so that the lower cut, made at an angle of 45º, is directly under the lower kidney, and the upper (straight) one is above the upper third kidney. The technology of growing roses involves the partial removal of leaves (this is necessary to reduce evaporation). The bottom sheet is completely removed, and the top ones are shortened by 1/3.

How to plant a rose cutting

What you need ideally: a sufficient amount of light, air temperature + 23-25ºС, moderate watering and spraying.

Consider two ways to root cuttings of roses:

  • in the soil - for this they are planted obliquely on a prepared bed (if grafting occurs in late spring or summer), or at home in pots with a substrate of peat, sand (most) and fertile land. Cover the landing with a glass jar, creating a small greenhouse. You need to water the plantings as needed, and before planting the cuttings in the pot, you need to add well-washed coarse-grained river sand, into which you need to stick the cuttings (sand will not allow the plant to rot due to excess moisture). When it starts to give young shoots, you can sometimes open the jar to remove the condensate.
  • in water - for this, the cuttings are placed in a container with water and left in a warm, well-lit place. From time to time, the water needs to be changed and topped up, and after 20-25 days the cuttings will have roots and can be transplanted into pots with earth. You can add a root formation stimulator to the water to root the cutting - then the roots will appear faster.

How to grow a rose from a bouquet

Very often there is a desire to grow the same flowers from a beautiful bouquet of roses. This can be done, you just need to cut the cuttings in time and germinate them correctly. Cuttings are carried out when the flowers begin to shed their petals.

The cuttings are cut as usual - from below at an angle of 45º, and from above straight. There should be 1-2 buds on the handle. It is better to root shoots from a bouquet in the soil according to general rules, but they must be stuck into the substrate strictly vertically, deepening to the first bud. With proper care, they will take root in about a month and begin to produce young shoots. It should be noted that cuttings of local varieties of roses take root better.

If the plants took root in the garden in the garden, then by winter it is better to dig up the first-year cuttings and transplant them into pots for wintering, which must be put away in the house or in a dry cellar. And in the second year, they can already winter in the garden right in the soil, provided that the flowers are reliably sheltered for the winter.

To make roses resistant to diseases and pests, you need to take good care of them - water and feed them in a timely manner. The first top dressing is needed when young seedlings reach a height of 15 centimeters. For feeding, it is advisable to take a complex fertilizer, at a dosage of 15 grams per 10 liters of water. Please note that fertilizing roses with nitrogen should be stopped in the middle of summer, but fertilizers with phosphorus and potassium can be applied until autumn.

Rose stalk in potatoes, why?

In this way, the potato tuber creates nutrition and moisture for the roots and the cuttings grow faster.

Fresh potatoes contain the optimal set of nutrients. This is a long-term source of constant moisture and reliable protection against hypothermia, decay, and the development of bacterial diseases that sometimes affect roses at the initial stage of growth. In addition, it is technically easy to grow a rose cutting in fresh potatoes.

To germinate cuttings of roses, take tubers that are recently dug up, not sluggish and not spoiled. Remove all eyes to prevent germination.

If the stalk is grown in a pot in winter, then just select dense, large potatoes.

For cutting cuttings, it is not recommended to use shoots with unripe buds, as well as with already faded roses, since it is very difficult to root such cuttings - they simply do not take root. Reproduction by cuttings is also possible from a purchased rose from a bouquet - there is no fundamental difference. But keep in mind that Dutch roses are treated with a preservative compound that provides a long shelf life, it is almost impossible to root them.

The length of the cutting should be 15-20 cm. Thus, from one rose or one shoot of medium length, 3-4 blanks for propagation can be obtained. The cuttings should be cut with a sharp tool, preferably with a garden pruner, so that the stem does not burst when cut. The lower cut is performed 2 cm below the kidney at an angle of 45°, the upper one is 1 cm above the kidney, and the cut itself can be either at an angle or straight. All lower leaves of the cutting must be removed.

Next, sections of the cuttings are treated with a weak solution of potassium permanganate, and then placed for a day in a stimulating solution of any root formation stimulator, prepared according to the instructions for it. You can replace these funds with fresh aloe juice.

After all the preparations, the cuttings of roses are stuck with the bottom part into the prepared hole in the potato. I will clarify that the propagation of roses in potatoes is only suitable for upright varieties. For growing a climbing rose, not a cutting is used, but a layering - a shoot dug and rooted in the soil, because growing a layering in a potato tuber is very difficult.

You can root a rose in a potato tuber at home in a pot, or by immediately placing it in open ground. Planting cuttings directly into the ground gives the advantage that the roses will not need to be replanted, and this will allow them to bloom in the same year or next spring. The site for planting cuttings should be bright, without stagnant water and protected from the wind. Further landing technology is as follows:

  • dig a trench 20-30 cm deep (for planting in rows, or for further transplanting to another place) - for planting single bushes without transplanting, separate holes are dug for each plant;
  • pour a layer of river sand at the bottom of the pit - this is necessary to prevent contact of the tubers with the ground, and to prevent the potato itself from rotting, and with it the cuttings;
  • stick the prepared rose cuttings into the holes made in the potato tubers;
  • place planting material in the trench at a distance of 15 cm from each other;
  • fill the trench 2/3 with earth mixed with sand, lightly tamp.

Landings must be provided with a good level of humidity. Watering should be regular, but not too intense. For the first time, it is recommended to cover the cuttings with a plastic bottle with an unscrewed cap (to provide air access). On sunny days, plants need to be shaded; on cloudy days, remove the bottle altogether. After about a month, when the cuttings take root, the shelter is completely removed.

We plant a rose stalk at home

To germinate roses in potatoes at home, prepare planting containers. Drainage should be laid at the bottom of the pots, then fill the containers with soil mixture (any store soil for flowers will do), along with sand. Place the sprout potato in the pot. Sprinkle with soil.

In order for the cuttings to take root sooner, the soil must remain moist, so at home, in addition to watering, it is recommended to additionally spray future roses with water. A shelter made from a glass jar, a plastic bottle, or a plastic bag will help maintain heat and humidity. After the buds begin to develop on the cuttings, the shelter is removed, and the seedlings are gradually adapted to the conditions of the external environment. Particular attention should be paid to the quality of lighting, but care must be taken that the sprouts do not overheat under the lamps.
