Rose Cuttings - advice please
Hi,
I have had rose cuttings on the go since autumn. I few weeks ago, they looked strong & healthy - they have been in an open cold frame. Leaves had broken from a number of buds. Lately, they have been losing their flush, and are either wilting, or discoloured. There does appear to be some healthy growth, though. Is this a fairly normal stage while roots develop? When should I get worried?? Chris S |

Chris S I had some 'dog rose' cuttings taken in winter before last; kept them in a bucket of soil,and planted them out last spring; they really just 'ticked over' all of last year. Now, they're looking very healthy and putting on masses of new growth already this spring. I'm assuming they need a year to sort themselves out, and probably most of their energy goes into roots. However - I'm most definitely NOT a rose person, and I'm speaking only from my own (newbie to gardening) observations. Good luck! Garry |
