How to propagate climbing roses? Can they be grown by cuttings?

1. Grafting propagation

1. Preparation: Climbing roses can be propagated by grafting. The rootstock can be wild rose seedlings. This type of rootstock is relatively strong, has strong vitality, and is easy to survive after grafting. Strong branches can be cut from well-grown plants and used as cuttings for grafting.

2. Grafting time: The time for grafting can be selected from January to February each year. During this period, the growth bud has not yet begun and the juice in the plant has not yet flowed. At this time, grafting will cause less damage to the plant.

3. Start grafting: Use a blade to cut a 1-2 cm shield-shaped incision in the sunny place 4-6 cm from the ground on the rootstock, then cut the full buds from the branches, and then embed the buds into the cut rootstock, and wrap and tie them with a white plastic bag. Once the two are fixed together, you can remove the plastic bag.

2. Cutting propagation

1. Cutting time: Climbing roses can be propagated by cuttings, and the survival rate is very high, but many varieties cannot be propagated by cuttings. You must choose the right time for grafting. The best time for grafting is in late spring or early autumn. The temperature during these two periods is suitable and more conducive to survival.

2. Cut branches: Choose plants with good growth conditions and cut strong young branches from them.

3. Carry out cuttings: prepare a sand bed, insert the branches into it, keep the temperature at around 10℃, and spray water appropriately to promote rooting.
