When it comes to roses, everyone feels very familiar with them, as roses and roses are somewhat similar, except for the fragrance. They are almost the same, with colorful colors. Planting them in the garden in summer and watching them bloom together is simply beautiful and attracts many people's attention. Different colors of roses blooming together are stunningly beautiful.
Those who have cultivated roses will feel that whenever roses bloom, there are more smiles on your face and your mood becomes more joyful. Even if you grow the roses well and they are flourishing, there will still be some minor incidents during the propagation process.
Although it is known that a single branch can turn into multiple pots of roses, and that it can root in both soil and water, it is unknown which environment roots faster. Most people choose soil because once it is inserted into the soil, there is no need to take care of it. Moreover, when placed in water, it needs to be changed. However, in the process of rose rooting, it is really not advisable to take shortcuts, as it is easy for the roots not to grow and eventually lead to death.
If you really want to propagate roses, I'll tell you a method: rooting in water, 100% survival rate, turning one pot into many is not a dream. Let's take a look at how to propagate in water and what to pay attention to.
Can roses be propagated by water cutting?
1. Prepare a piece of sponge and a plastic bottle in advance. Choose a strong branch. The thicker and stronger the branch, the more willing it is to root and sprout. Cut the branch into small sections about 10 centimeters long, with the bottom cut at a 45-degree angle to make it easier to absorb water and nutrients.
Why choose to add a piece of sponge instead of just choosing water propagation? Because the sponge has good water retention, which is more conducive to rooting.
2. When choosing sponge, select one that is larger and thicker, preferably square with the same length, width, and height. This can smoothly insert the rose branch and keep it fixed. Placing the sponge in the plastic bottle prevents it from tilting and is super useful.
