| Rose Stem Cuttings - 9 Days Later |
When M was here on Friday, he asked how the rose stem cuttings were doing and I showed him.
It had been nine days after he took the cuttings and stuck them in some potting soil. I had tented the pot with a plastic bag, which created a mini greenhouse for the cuttings.
Not only were the cuttings still green, there were the beginnings of leaf buds on almost all of the stems! M was impressed!
It does not necessarily mean that the stems have developed roots yet. But, the cuttings seem to be healthy and showing the potential to grow.
I will continue to keep them enclosed in a plastic bag and make sure the soil remains moist. Hopefully, the leaf buds will form new leaves, at which point, I might be able to check for roots and pot them up.
It will be exciting to see if the stem cuttings will grow into little rose bushes over time!
What do you think? Do you think these stem cuttings will root? Have you grown rose bushes from rooted stem cuttings?
