I took cuttings of these red roses and two other favorites, to move to the new house. It will be much smaller garden. I usually start roses in fall, but have started some during summer successfully. They are all 25 to 30 year old bushes. #RoseCuttings #RosePropagation

23rd day progress note for rose stem cuttings. These were treated exactly the same way as the St. John's Wort cuttings I posted separately. Two have roots showing through drainage holes. A fair number of leaves dropped. Happy 😀. #RoseCuttings #PlantPropagation #RosePropagation

I transplanted the Playboy rose start into a larger container with fresh potting soil. I took this cutting mid June. It's a nice rose and I wanted it for the new house. Photos show root development; repotted rose start; original bush in May. #RosePropagation #cuttings 🌱 #gardening
