Climbing roses, with their unique colors and elegant vines, have become a favorite of many gardening enthusiasts. How to efficiently propagate climbing roses? We will introduce in detail the cutting method of climbing roses, so that you can easily master the propagation skills and let beautiful flowers cover your home.
Choose the right cutting timeThe cutting time of climbing roses is usually in spring and autumn, as the temperature is suitable for the growth of cuttings. The best time for spring cutting is from March to May, and autumn is from September to November.
Prepare cutting materials1. Cuttings: Choose healthy and disease-free climbing rose branches, about 15-20 cm long, cut the bottom obliquely and the top flat.
2. Cutting medium: You can use materials such as river sand, perlite, or vermiculite, which require good drainage and strong breathability.
3. Cutting containers: You can choose containers such as plastic cups and flower pots, which require drainage holes at the bottom.
Cutting steps1. Put the cutting medium in the container and compact it until the surface is flat.
2. Insert the prepared cuttings into the medium, about 3-5 cm deep, ensuring that the center of the seedling is exposed.
3. Gently compact the surrounding medium with a stick or finger to make the cutting tightly combined with the medium.
4. Place the cutting container in a semi-shady and well-ventilated area and keep the medium moist.
Maintenance management1. Watering: Keep the medium moist but avoid waterlogging. In the early stage of cutting, water 2-3 times a day, and gradually reduce the watering frequency as the seedlings grow.
2. Fertilization: In the early growth stage of cuttings, you can apply a thin water-soluble fertilizer appropriately to promote its growth.
3. Light: Cut seedlings need plenty of light but avoid direct sunlight. In the early stage of growth, you can shade appropriately to prevent the seedlings from getting sunburned.
Precautions1. Choose healthy cuttings to avoid the spread of diseases and pests.
2. When cutting, ensure that the cuttings and the medium are tightly combined to avoid the seedlings from tilting or falling over.
3. Keep the environment clean to prevent the occurrence of diseases and pests.
