Benefits of growing roses from a bouquet

The advantages of growing roses, the seedlings of which are grown at home, over shop bushes include:

• there is a high probability that the store bush will not take root on the site. Store seedlings are grown in special conditions: a special soil composition, various chemical stimulants and dressings are used. On the site, the plant loses all this, and therefore, it begins to hurt;
• exactly the kind of rose that you want will grow on the site;
• Growing roses yourself is much more economical.

What to do if the rose has sprouted or leaves

The rose in the vase gave new leaves what to do? What should be done if a rose has sprouted in a vase? These questions arise if any new parts grow in the cut flower. If there are only leaves, it will not be possible to extend the life of the rose, but if roots appear, then you can try to transplant it into the soil. However, if the plant is imported, then it will not be able to take root, since it will not survive the winter.

Also, those flowers that stand for more than a month will not be able to take root, since they are treated with chemicals. The flower cannot grow without chemical feeding. Summer cuttings take root best of all.

Best timing for work

In order for the process of grafting roses from a bouquet to bring the best results, all procedures are best carried out in late spring, summer, autumn. The best root growth occurs in June. August-September is the time when the strength of the flowers becomes less, which negatively affects the growth of the root system.

At other times, the rooting process will go badly. The most unfavorable period is January-February. Most likely, the results of a novice grower at this time will be negative. In winter, it is necessary to provide flowers with optimal illumination, temperature, humidity.

Ways to take a shoot from a rose

Before you figure out how to take a shoot from a rose, it is worth studying the rules for choosing it, according to which it will be more suitable for growing from scratch. Requirements:

• the flower must be fresh;
• for grafting, it is best to use the middle part of the stem;
• the rose must be of domestic production. Foreign flowers are treated with various chemicals. Because of this, the rose may not sprout;
• one cutting should have 2-3 buds;
• the stem of the rose should be thick, juicy and green;
• the buds should be fully ripe and not dark.

Rose shoot

A rose is not suitable for growing if:

• the flower has been cut for a long time and stands in a vase for a long time, since there are most likely harmful microorganisms in its stem;
• the stem of the flower is too thin or woody with a thick core;
• the stem in the water turned dark;
• cracks appeared on the stem;
• the peel is missing in some places on the stem.

Also, the stalk should be properly prepared:

• cut the cuttings from the stem, leave a length of 20-30 cm. Pruning is done with a sharp knife or pruner to prevent injury to the stem. Also, the tool must be pre-disinfected in order to exclude infection;
• remove the lower leaves, thorns, buds, bad buds. The upper leaves are shortened by 1/3;
• the bottom is cut at a 45 degree angle and the top is straight. Everything is lubricated with wax. Slices must be done so that from the vital kidneys to the cut is 1 cm;
• clean settled water is poured into the container. A root growth stimulator (Kornevin, Epin, Charkor) is diluted in water. The drugs are used in accordance with the instructions on the package. The cuttings are immersed in water for 1/3 for 6 hours. You can also make a homemade solution using a glass of water, twenty drops of aloe juice, or a teaspoon of honey. In this solution, the stems are soaked for a day.

Kornevin

There are three ways to plant a cut rose: growing in a flower pot, in potatoes, in water.

Growing in a pot

There are many recommendations on how to plant a rose shoot in a pot. With this method, the root system develops a strong, resistant to adverse factors. A separate pot is prepared for each cutting. If all cuttings are planted in a common box, then there should be an interval of 6-8 cm between them. The flower container should have several holes. The soil should be especially for roses, soil is suitable for violets.

You can also mix two parts of garden soil, two parts of rotted compost, one part of washed sand. When moss is added to the ground, the likelihood of plant decay is reduced. Moss also allows air to pass through, which has a beneficial effect on rooting.

Detailed step by step potting:

1. The container is treated with potassium permanganate and dried well.
2. The bottom is laid out with drainage, then soil is poured, which is preheated in the oven.
3. Each cutting is dipped in Kornevin, which will protect it from decay.
4. Then the cuttings are planted in the ground by 2-3 cm. Two buds are left on top.
5. Moisten the soil.
6. Dry soil is poured on top to prevent crust formation.
7. A plastic bottle is used for shelter, which will create a greenhouse effect. The boxes are covered with foil. It is necessary to maintain the temperature during the day +25 degrees, at night +18 degrees.
8. The container is placed in a place not too sunlit and not heavily drafted.
9. Sometimes it is worth adding water, but you cannot fill it too much.
10. After the first leaves appear, the jar can be removed.

Growing in a pot

With this method, the roots should germinate after about 30 days.

Growing with potatoes

This method has appeared recently. However, the results are quite productive. The potatoes have the necessary nutrients and moisture for the cuttings. Only young potatoes are suitable. Before planting a cutting in a potato, the tuber should be prepared. To do this, it is washed, the eyes are removed, treated with a manganese solution and thoroughly dried.

A hole is made in the tuber with a knife and a stem is inserted into it, which is cut at an angle of 45 degrees. Then the potatoes are placed in a pot with earth, slightly dripped (there should be 7-10 cm of soil above the potatoes) and watered with a weak solution of potassium permanganate. The top should be closed with a jar for a greenhouse effect. It is necessary to water it daily with plain water and once a week with sweetened water (a teaspoon per liter of water). After a new leaf grows, the cans can be removed.

The tubers can also be placed in the garden area, where it is light, there are no strong drafts. At the planting site, dig a trench 15 cm deep. Sand is poured in a 5 cm layer. The groove is well spilled and potatoes with cuttings are placed there.Then backfill with soil in such a way that one kidney remains on top. After that, watering is done again, covered with cans, plastic bottles or film. The sprouts appear in about half a month. Due to the large amount of nutrients in potato tubers, rooting of cuttings occurs in 90 cases out of a hundred.

Growing in a package

This method is also called the Burrito method from the old bouquet. Cuttings cooked and soaked in water are taken out of the water and spread on a newspaper. The edges of the newspaper are folded and the paper is folded in the form of a beautiful roll, which contains planting material. This package is moistened with water and placed in a bag. The temperature should be kept at +18 +20 degrees.

The cuttings are checked once a week. The package is opened and the cuttings are carefully examined. If necessary, the paper is well moistened. Those cuttings that have rotten and blackened roots are removed, and the newspaper is changed to another. After half a month, the cuttings should take root.

Method with water

This method is less effective. Those plants that are planted in soil survive in 80% of cases, in water - in 30%. This is due to the fact that the plant lacks oxygen in the water.

Cut cuttings are placed in containers filled with water. The water should be kept at room temperature. Charcoal is dissolved in it for disinfection. Then they are placed in a quiet, dark place. The water should be changed every two days. After the first hairs of the roots appear, the cuttings can be planted in the ground. The rose should sprout in 3 weeks and the stems usually look dry. Then the cutting requires a temperature of 23-25 ​​degrees, constant moistening of the soil and spraying the upper part with water.

Landing in open ground

The best time for planting a cuttings that have developed roots in open ground is late spring. The landing site should be sunny, closed from drafts.

The size of the hole should correspond to the size of the roots. Organic fertilizers are used as top dressing. Before planting seedlings in a permanent place, they are shortened, leaving only 4 buds.

After the planting is over, the earth is shed and mulched with sawdust and peat. After about half a month, the seedlings will grow. When the shoots reach a length of 12-15 cm, the bushes are fed with complex fertilizers, as well as infusion of herbs and mullein.

Some gardeners dig (especially valuable varieties) and store before spring, in a room where the desired temperature and humidity are maintained.

Florist tips

• If you add river sand or crushed shells to the pot where the stalk will be planted, this will help to avoid stagnation of moisture, and a sufficient amount of oxygen will also flow to the roots.
• If a decision is made to root roses from a bouquet, it is necessary to carry out preparatory procedures. Change the water in the vase every day. At night, the flowers sink their heads down into a bowl of water.
• A flower that has taken root in the winter must be brought indoors or moved to a greenhouse. Under natural environmental conditions, the bush is left only for the second year of life, while it is well insulated.
• Do not apply too much fertilizer. The very first feeding is carried out with minerals when the plant reaches a length of a quarter of a meter.
• If buds appear on recently rooted seedlings, they should be removed so that the plant does not waste energy on flowering.
• In practice, the most effective cultivation of roses by cuttings is possible in those flowers whose buds are pink or red. More problems arise with yellow roses. The most problematic are roses with white flowers.
• When preparing the cutting, do not remove all the leaves on it, as this can contribute to poor juice circulation.
• Under any environmental conditions, after planting the cuttings in the ground, a shelter is made from cans or plastic bottles on top. This creates a greenhouse effect and protects the seedling from adverse environmental conditions. Jars are opened only after the cuttings have taken root.

Having analyzed and studied the methods of cutting roses, you can make sure that it is quite possible to grow a rose at home. The most important thing is the correct execution of all stages of work.
