Re: miniature roses

Patricia -
If by "propagate" you mean "grow," than miniature roses, including
micro-minis, require the same general culture that "regular" roses do. This
includes a minimum of 4 hrs full sun each day, which eliminates long-term
indoor culture. Also, the dry air indoors invites spider-mites in droves -
something minis are prone to anyway. Since most minis are propagated on
their own roots, they can safely be planted outdoors in areas where they
might freeze, and they will come back in the spring. You can safely bring
them in for a few months during the winter, but don't expect them to bloom
well.
