Hello Sean,
For us Rosa banksiae 'Lutescens' is easier to propagate than the classical
R. banksiae 'Lutea'. If you find R. banksiae var. normalis (the single white
form, a very strong grower), it is even easier !
We propagate them each year in June, just after the flowers, when new young
shoots appear on the branches. We use the young shoots, not the old stems.
Good luck !
Now Helene, your Rosa banksiae 'Purezza' sounds just great ! What's the
other parent ? Is it white or yellow ? Do you think you could possibly send
me some cuttings ?
