I have watched so many clips about growing roses from cutting and I have to say that this clip the THE BEST. It is easy to understand and he is so nice!!! Great video!
Thank you for this helpful video. I hope to be able to get some successful cuttings from the 200+ year old roses that are growing at my great-grandparents home place.
Thanks for making this a simple process. I am in zone 5 and have used cloches to plant rose cuttings in mid-August. It is remarkable that even at minus 15 the rose cutting is green and moist.
I cut some branches from a rose last fall. I don't even remember doing it. They got mixed into the garden soil when I was dumping some twigs and yard stuff into the garden. Three of the branches got covered with dirt. Then it was a snowy winter. And what do you know? Three twigs came up as living bushes and had started to root. So, it can be pretty damn easy.
Thanks for sharing...I cut my rose bushes out front and put them in water 💦 in the back, and your video reminded me to plant 🌱 it. Yes I have thorny rose 🌹 bushes. The weather has been so rainy out like fall will experiment with them.
Thank you very much for that ! I am in the UK and I am going to take your advice and do my rose cuttings ! It will be the first time I have done this so wish me luck ! Peter
Thank you for this video. Some branches get taller and don't get roses. I want to try it with those but I don't want to waste space on one that won't bloom.
I am going to try to do it this way,. In the past I have not started them inside with lights. I'm also going to try the method that is all the rage: putting the stem into a potato. We'll see if that one really works. I like to take many cuttings of all of my shrubs, and try out the tips I find online. Last fall, I did what a well known youtube grower suggested...took the cuttings, immediately putting them in water, used rooting hormone and placed them in a container that had sand in it...I modified it by using landscape fabric to line the inside of the basket (it was a very small version of a laundry basket-with many holes and a bottom. I took about 120 cuttings of purple sand cherry, diablo nine bark, double mock orange, and a large variety of Japanese barberry. I only had a handful that rooted. Thanks for the tutorial.
Hey man, thanks for posting the video. I read up on this and I was really not having any luck but this certainly helped. Appreciate that you took the time to post this.
propergating roses.by ground layer done by a old lady in wales.she bent down a branch of her rose .dug out a trench in her garden.cut underneath each node,pegged down the branch.and covered the branch with soil.this was dune in September,inthe spring she had seven new roses with roots still attached to the mother rose ,all she had to do was to cut the root.ever tried this
If U make a horixontal nick in the bit U bury,put in some rooting hormone powder /gel &prop cut open with a matchstick sliver -100%better chance.I have found that a heavy weight eg a pot/rock on top of the buried portion gives quicker &better rooting.This works very well with hybrid musk roses eg PROSPERITY ,FELICIA ,BUFF BEAUTY which deserve a place in every garden because of their unique qualities:beauty ,scent,superb autumn flush & PROSPERITY &BUFF BEAUTY if given support will climb.In my Delhi garden Prosperity(on own roots)is an 18 ft climber bearing countless trusses of scented blooms which in sunlight esp 10 -2 pm throw their gragrance far into the space around them-the best place to have elevenses -far far superior to ANY over rated David austin rose
Nice! I'm excited to try this. Right now the plant is still waking up and putting on some branches. Exciting to watch it daily and hopefully I'll be able to bless my family or friends with some plants.
I always keep an aloe plant around and when I'm cloning anything I cut a piece of aloe exposing the gel and dip my stems directly into the aloe. You could filet the aloe and mix it with a little water in a blender and dip cuttings. Aloe is a natural pest repellant and protects against harmful microbes and has beneficial nutrients, enzymes, that strengthen the plants resistance
Good info. Just to add. When trimming roses ( zone 3) in early Summer I will take similar cuttings and just stick them in the ground along fences, etc instead of tossing all the clippings out . I then 'forget' about them until late October. I likely have success with at least half. I'll dig up tender scsrieties, wrap them and store in the garage ( about plus 2c) o over winter. Hardy roses are left outside. I find the smaller the tender Rose ( within reason) , the better the winter survival rate
Thank you for taking the time to put this video together. I do have a question about your soil mix, can you let us know what it was again? What is the ratio of each item? Thank you.
Thanks for the video. I have tried this a few times but will try again. If it doesn't work I am leaving a few roses on the plant to get the seeds like in your other video. Fingers crossed.
THIS is the rose that I want to propagate, the one I have here is dying. It is GORGEOUS and the leaves and flowers are so profuse. Thanks for the vid! ANY chance I can buy a half-dozen rooted cuttings from you of this gorgeous heirloom??
I'm gonna give this a nudge tonite. It's spring here now (sthn hemisphere), but I feel confident. I've had great success with kitty litter (growing cannabis lol, but also chillis etc), I guess I'll do some in litter, some in potting mix, some in seed raising mix. I'll let you know how it goes.
+Grow Your Heirlooms failed lol. Got rot just above soil level. I'm going to blame low evening temps, but on the plus side the mother bush is now starting to flower :). I'll have another crack in March, it's still pretty warm by then
Thank you for a nice video. I tried it your way today, hopefully at lest one will take for me. Have you ever grown roses from seeds? If you have how did you do it and were you successful. Thank you.
Oh thank you for this video! I've wanted to make another rose bush off my current one but wasn't sure how. Think I just discovered my biggest problem, the branch I've cut lol. Think I've been using the "dead" branches. Think this would work off thicker branches? Every year my rose bush has 2 thick, stalk like branches that grow out of it. I've been tempted to cut them down and try growing new roses from that. (typically I just cut and toss the branches).
Thanks, I would think the smaller branches work better as they are less apt to rot. Less cut surface would heal quicker. But of course I'm just guessing. Try both and please let me know.
Tabbie Porter I wonder if those two thick stalks are the root stock that your rose was grafted on to. Do you know if your rose is an "own-root rose"? Sometimes a grafted rose that's been cut back too hard and too close to the graft node will die and the root stock will take over. I think most nurseries use "Dr. Huey," a red rose. Also, big thick stalks that shoot up at a scary speed and look very red and very different from the rest of the new growth could be rosette disease. It's frightful looking if you let it go and don't prune it off. Just some thoughts that your post reminded me of.
I have damask roses from the previous owners that grew them.. I’m trying to propagate them. I’m not sure if you’ll respond to this as it’s been a long time since you posted this.. but I hope this works for me.
The most important thing about gardening advice is WHAT GARDENING ZONE YOU ARE IN. It makes a huge difference. Do you live in Florida or Alaska? Advice could be wrong for the area you are in. You can propagate Roses, Hydrangeas and other shrubs taking cuttings and sticking them not far from the mama plant. Water them at the same time when you water adult shrub. You will have same results as in video and not fuss of messing in the house.
We are zone 3. My son has an amazing rose bush in his yard, it's similar to your gorgeous sitka, I am going to attempt cuttings from it after watching your video. My burning question is, how do I overwinter them afterwards? I suspect planting them out here would be the death of them.
Why cant I take old growth? I just moved and found an untrimmed rose bush...In freezing weather...I decided to trim it down...lol, then felt sorry for the trimmings and wanted to try and give them life. Put them in water and now they are growing crazy! It is too cold to plant them...how do I save them till spring...and can I cut them down again because they are long! (do not have a green thumb...but learning)
+B Wycoff (Brazjion) you can do old growth. But it's harder to start with. When i do a lot of trimmings on roses i put them in the dirt where i want a new rose bush and have had a lot of luck that way. Trying to propagate new roses to give as gifts with new growth i suck at.
I've heard that's how one would do it. I am trying to start tree's here by making cuttings. I hope it works out. If it does, I will make a video for my channel. By the way, I think we're neighbors.
Damn, I need a rapid response. I'm moving from Tennessee back to Florida and want to propagate trimmings from our property rose bush that's over 100 years old. I want to put them in a large 8 gallon pot for travel. Or should I put them in separate containers?
William walton Don't know how you're traveling and for how long. You also don't say how many cuttings. By truck, by plane, by car. 1 day 3 days 2 weeks,. I can't answer unless I had more info.
I propagated 4 rose cuttings into a large 6 gallon pot and another single cutting into a rough half gallon pot with rooting hormone. They've wilted quit a bit but a few don't even look like have been cut. And I drove them.
+William walton mix some of the native dirt with well composted manure or moisture thingys, make sure it is well damp,follow all the GYH steps, drain excess, cover with a bag, put in a large cooler if possible, and drive on. Do not stop to See Rock City. Cuttings will cook in the car. Add a cup of ice to the cooler if you have to stop. Treat the cuttings like you would a dog, basically. The 12 hour drive should be manageable if you treat them thoughtfully.
+William walton I know I'm late, but essentially you want to cut them at a diagonal angle, wet the tip, and stick it into some rooting hormone powder. If you use gel you don't have to wet it. Afterwards, put it in the grow medium (generally soil, vermiculite, perlite, and peat-moss ) and mist it lightly, and cover it with a transparent dome. I use a soda bottle with the lid cut off. The high humidity allows it to absorb water from it's leaves, preventing it from wilting. Keep it in the shade until you see new growth, which signified roots are being established.
@@YaMoonSun Add some sharp sand to your potting mix & dont overcrowd yr roses.Give yr old bush a severe trim ,dig it up with a good rootball ,wrap it in burlap &then plant it without disturbing (But U MUST USE RHS ROOTGRO micorrhiza mix for foolproof results)After planting place a few heavy rocks around the stem.Good luck
I have three stems in water and the nods under are starting to grow on two of the stems. It hasn't rooted but they have been in there about two weeks. Can you give me some advice on what to do please and thank you.
How many cuttings do take?Say out of 10?Actually there are a lot of factors temperature, humidity the kind of rose plant thaat you have taken the cutting from.Most of my cuttings turn black and die becaue of fungus although I do put fungicide.You seem to succeed effortlessly!Envy you!
Hi great video and love it. I have a question: I live in North Indiana and do I have to wait for fall to do cutting and growing like you did no this video? Thank you again for the great video!
I'm from Australia and its winter here. I would like to make some cuttings and is leaving them under the car port a good spot? and how much sun should they get a day? and would it help if i put a plastic bag over the cuttings to create like a a little green house? Thanks
Not if it's winter. Wait until spring, then keep them warm but not in full sun until they develop roots. They are trying to deal with making roots. They can't deal with the stress of cold and direct sun. Give them warmth and partial shade until they develop. Then plant them in their new location once the weather is warm.
I just want to ask you about my roses, it start to bloom now and i'm thinking of cutting it and plant it , it's not that cold here where i live, is it okay to do it now?
If it's warm where you are, then I would plant them now. Make sure to take as much of the existing soil with it. The last thing you want to do is shock it. It is putting energy into blooms. Spring is a perfect time to prune.
Great video! I have some questions though. Right now its the first week of June and we also live in Zone 7b (low temps in mid-winter can reach -10c that's 14F). I'm wondering if I start propagating now, do you think that I will be able to plant the cuttings in time for the plants to survive the winter? Thanks in advance.
I can only say from experience, that yes. If you get them into the ground now and are established well before fall they should do well. That's always worked for me. But I would not wait to transplant them. Get them in their final location ASAP. By winter they will be on their way.
What state are you located? I have tried twice to start a wild rose from cutting. Both failed. Now both times are in spring as I do hot have a hot house for winter. I live in West Texas and winters can get rather harsh.
Carl Mortell At first it's fine. But once they get established then they have to go outside in the warmth and sun. A windowsill probably won't cut it for a long time. But yes, it's great to get them rooted and started. Come summer, move them outside,
i want ask you or every body {anybody who have answer please share with me } is hybrid rose cutting bloom ? any size or quality difference between hybrid grafted rose and hybrid cutting rose .
I have tried so many different ways, in water first, then intp potting compost.. others straight into potting compost.. and all start to grow from the nodes, get new leaf.. then they just turn brown and die? Have tried many different rose plants.. use the green/new shoots? Help?
Interesting. Not sure what is happening. Are you keeping them warm? The environment has a lot to do with it. Once they start new leaves, keep them warm and give them plenty of light. You may be getting a fungal disease also. Use a sterile mix like coconut coir.
yes was keeping warm, tried makin mini greenhouses out of cut bottles but then they went mouldy.. so annoying. have some in water now, new shoots growing well.. scarred to put them in earth, even bought fish/blood meal and made a pot up of that and they still died.. grr
Great video but just a tiny quibble with your description above - it isn't possible to clone any plant from seeds - only cuttings are true clones in that they are genetically identical to the 'mother' plant. Anyway, many thanks again - this is my first attempt at rose cuttings - easiest plants to learn with are Pelargoniums (even a leaf will take), Rosemary and Lavender IMO.
you dont need the grow lights for rooting cuttings, in fact you will do better off to find a spot where they get diffused lighting. Too much light especially from overhead lighting will dry your cuttings out and they will die.
Um, he showed the important parts. He showed which branches to cut. Explained how far to cut down. And even explained which direction to cut the branches. Maybe try watching the whole video and not just the first 10 seconds?
