Can roses be propagated in water?
This article introduces whether roses can be propagated in water and the method of hydroponic propagation of roses. Let's take a look together!
Whenever roses are mentioned, people feel very familiar with them, because roses and roses are somewhat similar, except for the fragrance of the flowers, they are almost the same, with colorful colors. Planting them in the garden in the summer makes them bloom collectively, which is simply beautiful and attracts more people's attention. Different colored roses blooming together are simply stunning.
People who have raised roses can feel that when roses bloom, there are more smiles on your face, and your mood becomes more pleasant. Even if you raise roses well and they are thriving, there will still be some minor incidents during the propagation process.
Although it is known that a single branch can be turned into multiple pots of roses, and it is also known that they can be rooted in soil or in water, it is not clear which environment roots faster. Most people would choose soil, as once planted in soil, there is no need to pay attention to them, while in water, you have to change the water. However, in the process of rose rooting, it is really not advisable to take shortcuts, as this easily leads to poor root growth and ultimately results in the plant dying.
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 see how to propagate in water and what to pay attention to.
Can roses be propagated in water?
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 simply propagating in water? Because the sponge has good water retention and is more conducive to rooting.
2. When choosing a sponge, select one that is larger and thicker, preferably square with the same length, width, and height, so that it can be smoothly inserted into the rose branch and can be fixed in place. Placing the sponge in the plastic bottle makes it less likely to tilt and is super useful.
