There is another way to grow a rose from a cut flower - cuttings. Cut out the stem with leaves. It is better to leave the cuttings with "heels", then they will take root better. Under the kidney itself, make a neat oblique cut with a sharp razor. The cut must be smooth. Otherwise, the cutting may simply rot. Then make a second cut just above the kidney. This cut should be straight and even. It is better to cut cuttings with three buds (into 2 internodes). In this case, the likelihood of their rooting is much higher. Remove the bottom sheet, and leave the top two with 3 leaves to slow down.

In order to grow a rose from a cutting at home, a special planting box or pot is suitable. The main condition is that they must be clean. Before planting a new plant in a pot, clean and process it. Put expanded clay on the bottom of the pot, then a layer of nutrient soil (you can use the following composition: 2 parts of turf, 1 part of sand and 1 part of leafy soil). Spread a thin layer of river sand on a flat surface.

Then start landing. Plant under the following conditions:

  • landing angle - 45 °;
  • the kidney should be under the stem and close to the ground (1 cm);
  • the length of the cutting protruding from the ground is no more than 10 cm.

Water the cuttings after planting. Then fertilize with potassium permanganate. Planted cuttings will feel better in the shade and under "protection". It is best to cover them with a glass cap or jar. Observe the temperature - up to 20-25 ° C. Overheating will not lead to anything good. For the fastest growth, the cuttings need to be sprayed often: 5 times in the morning and in the evening. But only spray, do not water. Start watering only after they take root (after about 15 days). After this has happened, the glass can already be removed, and the cuttings can be planted in small pots prepared for them. When the roots of the plant get stronger, you can transplant into a larger pot. If buds begin to appear in plants during this period, they must be cut off so as not to weaken them. Don't be sorry. After all, the plant needs to enter into force and take root. And then it will thank you with its beauty and abundant flowering.
