Rose Propagating in August

I know I said in my last post I'd be making another batch of rose cuttings for propagation, but it seems I've either been too busy or it's been too hot! This last week was the hottest of the year here in NE Florida, and unless I've been at work or in the pool I havn't been outside much. Combine that with back to school preps for the kids it's been pretty hectic!

So hopefully by Monday I'll have 45 new cuttings in propagation medium that will turn into 40+ new plants in a few months. The first batch is still doing well with tons of new leaves emerging on the majority of them, and I've still only lost 4. Much better results than my previous attempts this year! Hopefully I'll have the pictures up so everyone can look at my method and replicate it if they desire.
