Summary
This video demonstrates how to propagate roses from cuttings. It is best to select healthy growth just after they’ve flowered around August time. Cut just below a leaf set, remove the first two sets of leaves, and cut at an angle to prevent water from entering the cut. Apply rooting powder, make a hole, and place the cutting in the soil. Water occasionally and wait a few weeks to see the progress.

Very informative! Thank you! Questions: Is it important to dip them into hormone powder? Would it work if I did not use the powder?
It is up to you, they do work without hormone rooting powder and there isn't much, but I just use it to give them an extra boost, thankyou!
use honey if you don't have rooting hormone
Thank you, I have a new video about using honey for rooting cuttings so if you're interested take a look, thanks, Huw
who dislike is a fools..
Yes you can root a wild rose but it's best to remove the rose hips so that the cutting concentrates on rooting, you can grow them from seeds but find another video for that as I can't explain, sorry about that but thanks for watching and good luck
Thx so much for the information & quick reply. I'll let ya know how it works out.
great video, thanks
Thank you so much for this/these videos . I just wish you spoke "English" the way I can understand it! 🙂 just kidding but I am in the U.S and am not familiar with "proper English" spoken by the English. But, I am learning………….
Hehe I'm sorry, also this was one of my first videos and I'm all high pitched and uhhhing all the time, thanks for watching my friend 🙂
can u make an update video of this and explain more how to do this and where exactly to cutt? please please ^_^
I do too now, I started using honey the year after this video, thanks!
Did it work for you?
out of breath
Should have watched the videos first! I managed to 'get' 3 long rose stems. Cut off the thorns and leaves. Cut them into 4inch pieces, making sure there were at least 3 nodes on each stick. Wounded each piece and they are now soaking in water. I think I murdered 3 stalks of rose bush as your video has the leaves still on the cuttings. Well I am going to put honey on the ends and stick them in some potting mix, cover with plastic and hope for the best. Any feedback would be appreciated.
How old are u dude your good?:)
you trim the leaves to reduce moisture loss to the plant. kind regards cherie
Can you clone a hybrid rose
