How to Push Roses From Buttons Under Bell
Introduction
Roses are among the most popular and appreciated flowers for their beauty and enchanting fragrance. If you want to multiply your roses in a simple and efficient way, cuttings under a bell are a very effective method. Here’s how to grow roses from cuttings under a bell.
Materials required:
- A clean and sharp dryer
- A pot or container filled with special cutting soil
- Healthy and vigorous rose cuttings
- A transparent plastic bell or a cut-out plastic bottle
- Water
Steps to follow:
1. Preparation of cuttings
Choose rose cuttings about 10-15 cm long, preferably at the end of the summer. Make sure that the cuttings have at least two or three pairs of leaves. Cut the stems with a clean pruner and remove the leaves from the bottom to promote rooting.
2. Planting cuttings
Fill a pot or container with special cutting soil. Make a small hole with a stick and gently plant the cutting by ensuring that the knots are buried. Lightly ground around the cutting to ensure good contact with the substrate.
3. Setting up the bell
Place the transparent plastic bell or cut plastic bottle on the pot to create a greenhouse effect. Make sure the bell is well sealed to hold moisture. This step will promote root development.
4. Watering and maintenance
Water the cuttings regularly, make sure to keep the soil slightly moist without soaking it. Avoid excess water that could lead to rotting of stems. Place the cuttings in a bright place without direct exposure to the sun to avoid burns.
5. Monitoring and patience
Monitor the condition of the cuttings regularly, seek the appearance of roots by gently tilting the cuttings. Be patient, the root formation process can take several weeks. Once the roots are sufficiently developed, you can replant the cuttings in individual pots.
Conclusion
By following these simple steps, you can easily grow roses from cuttings under a bell. This method is ideal to multiply your favorite roses and get new healthy plants. Don’t forget to take care of your new roses once they have been transplanted so that they will flourish fully in your garden.
