new growth from a cut rose
Keep the stem (not the growth) in shade - away from sun - and if you
can get buy a nursery see if they have 'Rootone' or the like name - it is a bio chemical IIRC that keeps fungus from growing and stimulates root growth. If you grow roots - you have a plant. Keeping the base wrapped in paper towel and in water is good. Martin Martin H.
