My sister has a rose bush that i would love to have. Its in bloom right now and I would like to either transplant it to my house or at least take a clipping that is sure to root. Does anyone know how this is done?
How to take clippings from a rose bush in bloom?
Clip it below a 7 leaf joint and on an angle. Remove the flower and put the stem into the soil so that the bud next to the 7 leaves is just above the ground. Cover it with a glass jar. Water regularly. When the jar fills with leaves, the transplant is complete and you can remove the jar. It is extremely hard to grow a rose that way. It would be far better to find out what the variety is called and buy your own bush.
Reply:My mother was able to grow roses from clippings, but I have never been able to do it. I hope you can find the variety of rose you want. The most beautiful red roses are Christian Dior and Mr. Lincoln. Report It
Reply:my friend used to take a branch and put it in a bucket of dirt while it was still attached to the bush and let it root that way when the roots formed she would clip it worked for her
