A regular rose that came as a gift died but instead of drying, new offspring are coming from the leaves! how do I plant them?

How do I plant a rose?
I'm a little confused. Are you talking about a cut rose? Are buds opening or are you getting new growth from a rose plant? If it is a cut rose then you can't plant it. However, if you have a bush just plant it in the ground. Many people get mini roses as gifts and are completely unaware that these are rose bushes intended to be planted outside so if this is what you are talking about then I would do my best to keep it alive over winter and then plant it in the ground in full sun after all danger of spring freeze is over. However, if you live in zone 9 or higher then you can go ahead and put it in the ground.





Planting instructions:


1) prepare the new home by digging a hole 2ftx2ft and water the hole. Fill the hole with water and let it drain at least twice.


2) save the top 2/3 of soil that you just dug up and set aside. Discard the bottom 1/3.


3) amend the soil you saved with peat, bone meal, and garden compost.


4) in the bottom of the hole add a layer of manure 2-3 inches thick and then layers some of the amended soil on top of the manure. Do NOT set the roots directly on the manure.


5) Remove the rose from it's container and check and trim off any dead or damaged roots. Also, make sure your rose is not root bound loosening the soil and unbind the roots.


6) set the rose in hole making sure the soil on the root ball is a little above the level of the new hole. You want the rose to be on a small mound.


7) fill in the hole half way with the ammended soil and water. Once the water has run through then finish filling in the hole with the soil and water throughly.





Good Luck
Reply:you cant plant a rose... you have to plant a rose bush
Reply:Well first you take a mini shovel, then you make a hole.Next you take the seeds and you put them in the hole.(make sure you put the hole in the sun.)Then you cover up the seeds/cover the hole.after you do that pour some water on the hole(make sure you don't over fill with water.The right amount is when you see that the top of the dirt were you planted the seed.)the last thing make sure you pull the weeds around it and don't forget to give it enough water and plenty of sunshine.)You'll do fine.
