RE: Rooting Found Roses


I'm still experimenting with propagating roses,
but most sources say the best time to take
cuttings is just after blooming, especially with
the old ones. I have also found that just as they
wake up from winter and the bud eyes begin to
swell seems to be a good time.
Meanwhile take notes and pictures of the rose
you have in mind. Remember that it generally
takes 6 cuttings and 2 years (if all is well) to
get a rose.
