What Are the Different Methods for Rose Propagation?
Several different methods are in use for rose propagation. Many of these techniques are easy enough for beginning gardeners to use, and people who are interested in exploring roses can get started with just a few basic tools. When preparing to propagate roses, gardeners should be aware that some hybrids are patented and that propagation of such plants may not be legal, especially if those plants are being grown for commercial sale. While companies are unlikely to prosecute a gardener growing roses in a home garden, if rose plants or cut roses are sold and they are from patented hybrids which have been propagated, the developer of the hybrid may take exception.
