I would like to propagate my late grandmother's roses from cuttings. They are
mostly hybrid teas like 'Peace', 'Chrysler Imperial', 'Mister Lincoln', and
'JFK'. I've heard that most hybrid teas are grafted. Could anyone recommend
the preferred rootstock varieties,where I might buy them retail, and how this
process is done?
Specific information regarding successful methods for hybrid tea rose
grafting, such as useful "hormones", graft types, cutting size, time of year,
etc. would be very helpful.
This will have to be done outdoors, in Sunset zone 8 (USDA zone 9).
Thank you.
Angela
