How To Create A Rose Bush From A Bouquet Of Roses!
Growing your own roses and propagating them is a satisfying experience when you turn a bouquet of roses into a rose bush. Here's a step-by-step manual to assist you with the procedure:
Select disease-free and healthy roses for your bouquet. The stems must to be robust and devoid of wilt.
1
Cut the bouquet's rose stems to a length of 6 to 8 inches. Just below a leaf node—the point on a leaf where it joins to the stem—make the cut.
2
Submerge the cut end of every stem into a gel or powder containing rooting hormone. This encourages the formation of roots.
3
Use tiny pots or containers that are filled with a rooting mix that drains easily, like a blend of peat moss and perlite.
4
Place the stem's cut end about two inches deep into the rooting mix. To keep the stem in place, compact the dirt surrounding it.
