BOTANY

Detailed explanation-1: -Roses may be rooted at any time of the year, but for home gardeners, success is much more likely during the cool months from November through February. Late fall is a favorite time because there are usually a few blossoms still remaining on everblooming types to identify them.

Detailed explanation-2: -Give your rooted rose cuttings 9 to 12 months to develop enough to plant in your garden.

Detailed explanation-3: -Graft your roses in mid-summer, because this is when the sap inside the plants is flowing. If the sap and nutrients are flowing, there’s a better chance the graft will take and the new rose will thrive. The best time for grafting is after the mid-summer bloom cycle, which usually occurs in August.

Detailed explanation-4: -The classic method of rose propagation is to take cuttings. Cuttings root easily and quickly when they are handled properly, and they create clones of the parent plant.
