Hardwood rose cuttings, fall and winter

[@TheHouseofChameleons]

I was worried why my cuttings didnt have roots after a month or two. I didnt know certain cuttings took this long. This cleared up my confusion. Thanks!

Titanium. Thanks!

[@thetacountry4487]

Very good video. Thanks for the direct straight forward approach!

[@Aria.Serenity]

Thank you so much, this is wonderful! It works so well! I had tried growing roses from cuttings all my life, with a very low percentage of success. In early December, I put about a dozen rose cuttings in, following your instructions. I added in a lilac and a hydrangea, too, just to experiment. I left them all winter, unprotected outdoors. In early April, all of the cuttings are strong and healthy and budding - 100% success! I'll pot them up and keep them watered in summer, when the roots have filled out. Or, can they go directly into a permanent home in the ground? I'm in the Willamette Valley, Oregon, zone 8b.

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

I'm so happy for you. If they're happy where they are, you might keep them in place a while longer to thicken up the roots - or transplant them directly to their new home if the roots are established enough. No need for a potting step IMO.

[@Aria.Serenity]

@@FraserValleyRoseFarm Sounds good! Thanks again for sharing your knowledge in an outstanding video, and thank you for your helpful reply. :D

[@alexhogan1]

Thanks, that was great! I’ve taken some cuttings today so I’m looking forward to seeing if I get any good results.

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

Best luck!

Nice informative video. I heard that besides knowing which end is up the diagonal cut on top helps H20 to roll off, preventing diseases from starting there. 🌱

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

Thanks Lauren. I've heard that reason too. I can't see it making a whole lot of difference, but wouldn't argue with anyone who found it useful.

Do these and all cuttings from cold-hardy mother plants tolerate frost? Could you have stuck them in the ground outside with good results, except for slower or no rooting during the winter?

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

Yes - most people stick them outside. That was just the space I had at the time. The cuttings of hardy shrubs are fine with the outdoor temps.

[@prisciladennison3360]

Thank you so much Mr. Fraser … love the ants advice and sure works …no more ants inside my home oh my gush!… and outside …,your advice is always good …,god bless you sir😊🙏

Hi Jason, it seems you are not using rooting hormone with these hardwood cuttings, or did I miss that step? Is it necessary, or would you say it's not?

[@mojaadresa4228]

Hello Jason, Thanks for your inspiring video. Without any knowledge about Roses, couple of years ago I tried "something" 😀 in order to get some more rose bushes from my garden. I can not remember When i have done it. Either late autumn or late winter or early spring. Any way, my cuttings were about similar lenght as You showed. I place them outside in the grund and put plastic bottles over them. I can't remember Which month it was when i saw two pairs / levels of leaves. At that time it was sunny and warmer so, i thought i should remove the bottles. Beide watering them, in abot a week, all leaves died out. Now, Although it is mid December, I got a desire to try that again since my naighbour has very nice dark red Roses which grow up to about 1,6m. At the moment, the nights are from 3 till - 3 C. In winter, the temperature can get till - 10, - 15 C. Is it still possible to put the cuttings outside, in unheated room or heated indoors? How many buds should a cuttings have and how many buds should be a ove the grund? If I plant them in big water conteiners, what kind of soil should I use? I Hope that You Will have enough patience to read my message and write some tips. Good luck to all hobby gardeners and I wish you all a very happy New Year and a colourfull garden. 👋👋👋

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

Yes, you can do hardwood cuttings outdoors (so long as you can find unfrozen ground to stick them into) or you can do it under shelter. I made a video about cool season cuttings in sand recently if you want some inspiration: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZXdo3WNf76WaZI Usually 3 or 4 sets of buds, and buried about half way (or a little more) into the soil, sand or potting mix.

[@charlesbale8376]

Good content, really appreciated.

[@s.stalinbabu6521]

Thank you for the information 😊

[@moxee33]

Hi Jason what happens if you do hardwood cuttings in the spring or summer? can you ever leave any leaves on the cutting? is it ok to cut the thorns off or will that dry them out faster? thank you!

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

Here's another "hardwood" method I tried out in both summer and winter: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pX6YeKOZpNF8g6s For this method, I've seen that other peope have removed the prickles, but I haven't tried it myself. If I'm doing cuttings in the summer and early fall, I still prefer semi-hardwood... so much quicker and higher success rate. For that method, you do leave foliage on - because it's quick, and the presence of foliage helps the cuttings along.

[@adrianabonitaaziz7393]

Thank you so much Sir !

[@emanuellivori5219]

I like watching your videos. I had put the rose cuttings in plastic bottles with compost , is that right? Since I had done this process, the cuttings started to have small leaves coming out, does that mean that I will be succeeding?

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

It might, but the roots are more important than the shoots at first. If you're brave and careful enough, you can tease up the cuttings to see if roots or callus have formed. Plastic bottles can work okay to maintain humidity - but watch for air circulation too. I hope it's a success for you!

[@nihatsavmaz6677]

Hello and Thank you! This was a very useful video. 05.07.24

[@thisisjayschannel]

Hi Jason do you keep these cuttings out of direct sunlight, like you would with a semi hardwood cutting ?

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

Yes, I've picked a semi-shaded location - which may not be such an issue over the winter period, but when there's more sun and higher temps in spring it'll be helpful.

[@brendaroxde6471]

I have good success with stems cuttings-propagation from the previous year

[@hydr0539]

Awesome video

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

Thanks!

[@illutionary]

When is the best time to take the hardwood cuttings and put them into the soil? If we do not have a green house can we keep them in a pot someplace cool like a garage or under a plastic dome in the garden? Thank you for the video.

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

Fall and winter for this method - and yes, most people do it in a shaded spot in the garden. Consistent moisture is important.

[@roxy12316]

Thanks fo the information; I just wanted to ask that how much time a semi hardwood/ hardwood cutting takes to root. I tried once and even after 60 days; no roots were there( leaves dropped after then)

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

If it's cool, it can take 4 to 6 months. So long as the cuttings are still green and plump, there's still a chance. Once they dry out, go brown or black, they're dead.

[@Lvaladez114]

I've been trying but I don't have the set up you have I've basically just been poking the cutting In potting soil with a basic rooting hormone. I have had 2 successful rootings. The Pink fairy and touch of class. They seem to do well until I water them then some seem to turn black by the next day. I keep the soil moist not wet an give then addition water every four or 5 days small amount. I thought about spritzing them but I didn't think that would be enough water offten enough. I keep them in a shady place outside. What else can I do to keep them from dying off due to watering them. Thanks I hope to get better to share with family and friends but to spread them around my own yard.

[@norashuda5652]

Thank you -- good information

[@chamanshahyari2533]

Thanks for your informative video I have a question, For rose cutting is there a specific season or time, or if we can do this any time of the year,?

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

For hardwood cuttings, it's traditionally fall and winter. Semi hardwood or softwood is usually spring and summer.

[@gabbysgoods827]

Great 👍 advice !!! What do you recommend? Putting them in a starter flat ? Should I keep it inside ? You said in warm.conditions? I’m trying to figure out the best way to do this. I wish I had a greenhouse that would make it a lot easier. You said warm conditions so should I keep it inside ? I’m just not sure 🤔 what to do. Then I have to worry about gnats and I don’t want to deal with that. What do you recommend what kind of organic soil ?

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

Hi Gabby. I've done an updated video on hardwood cuttings here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZXdo3WNf76WaZI Cooler is better than warm for these ripened stem cuttings. Even outdoors if the conditions aren't too severe.

[@akramabuf9224]

Thanks for the information. You didn't use hormones?

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

I didn't on this occasion - but on other years I have, and it improves the success rate a bit (like 5 to 10%, which may be worth the extra time)

[@SampatHarish]

Very informative video. Thanks. I plan to propagate hydrangea out of hardwood cuttings. Where should I place the pots with those cuttings? In the shade? Partial shade? Or full Sun? Thanks

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

I'd pick part-shade.

[@fishxfood]

Hi, really useful video thank you. What would be the best approach suitable for budding/growing cut stems from a bouquet? I've currently got them in water and they're thriving and really growing, but no roots yet. Can I just plant them in pots? Many thanks!

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

Some I've seen some people continue in the water (changing frequently to keep fresh) until they see callus/root. When you say "growing" do you mean that new shoots are emerging from the buds? It can be tricky to try to establish new roots in soil quickly enough to supply active top growth. If you do try in sterile potting soil, dip in a rooting hormone, and make sure to mist or maintain humidity to stop the top growth from wilting. Best luck!

[@fishxfood]

@@FraserValleyRoseFarm thank you! Really appreciate the reply! The new growth is about +10cm long, along with many new shoots too (this has all happened within one month of recieving the bouquet)

[@maximilianmartin8934]

Hello Jason thank you for your really helpfull videos! What is the desinfaction solution your using in this spray bottle? Or what do you recomend?

I haven't done too much with sand - I found it a bit heavy and soggy in containers (but it may have been too fine a sand). I know that other people have had good luck with coarse sand, and I'll have to give it a try sometime.

When I get situated I have a wonderful old Rose I want to share with you. It is a very small hybrid tea but it's exquisite. Has a deep Rose reverse with silvery pink on the inside and beautifully formed. I will contact you later to send you some cuttings. In fact it might be better to do it now and just send you the hardwood cuttings. Let me know if you're interested. I thought this Rose was the Baty's Pink Pillar but after finding a picture of it I see that that is not it. It is a pillar Rose.

Hi. Great video! - Can you do this with any type of rose or does it have to be a specific kind? - What are your thoughts on using a potato? Obviously you didn’t. Have you ever done this and did it work? - Growth hormones or not? If yes, is it better to use natural or synthetic? I’ve seen both used in videos. - I’m not currently working and don’t know anyone with roses. Is there a good place to get discount or free roses especially if they’re not looking great anymore?

No, most people do them in regular garden temperatures. I've seen some results with gentle bottom heat, and it does speed things along - but faster isn't always the goal with hardwood.

[@arti5038]

Was that final product ? I mean after coming new leaves is that ready for planting ?

[@FraserValleyRoseFarm]

From the time of sticking in winter, it takes until the following summer for good rooting. Roots are more important than lots of shoots or leaves for transplant. After I see good roots, I'll transplant into a pot to size up.

[@arti5038]

Fraser Valley Rose Farm After the transplant, the plants will need grafting or not ? I mean plants will give flowering itself ???

Hi Arti. No grafting. Own-root roses, same as the parent, and will flower the same as the parent - most likely the following spring after transplant.
