This method of multiplication has several advantages, particularly in relation to sowing. Thus the plant obtained is perfectly identical to the one from which it comes. Rather than a child as in the case of a seedling, we can speak of a clone with the same genetic heritage.
Below we show you how to get a beautiful collection of roses from the stem.
Step 1 :
The first thing to do is to identify the ideal place to put the roses. Dig a hole about 6 inches deep and fill it with sand. To choose the right place, follow these tips:
- Don’t put the roses too close together.
- Do not place roses too close to a wall or under a tree.
- Make sure the roses get air and sunlight, preferably in the morning.
2nd step
- Obtain rose stems or cuttings, which will be used to propagate them and make our garden.
- The important thing is that the stems are approximately 20 to 25 centimeters long.
Step 3
- This step is as simple as it is important.
- The stems must be cleaned, removing leaves and impurities, to promote its regeneration.
Step 4
- Insert the rose stems into the sand, leaving a little space between them.
- Push the stems firmly into the sand so that they are firmly attached.
Step 5
- Cover the stems of the rose bushes with fertilized soil and tamp it down well with your feet to compact it well.
