This is how even the beginner can do it

Propagate hybrid tea roses with cuttings

The easiest way to breed is the propagation of cuttingswhich also works with hybrid tea roses that are not genuine - after all, the genetic information for flowers and scent is not in the roots, but in the shoots. Shortly after the flowering period, cut off a shoot with a dead flower and root it, then you have already created a clone of the mother plant. There are various methods of rooting, because rose cuttings can be rooted in a glass of water as well as in the ground. Propagation using cuttings also often works very well.

Can hybrid tea roses be propagated from seeds?

who Propagate roses from seeds would like, of course, needs rose hips first. Not all rose species and varieties develop these fruits, which is why seed reproduction is not always possible. But even if your rose gets rosehips, that doesn't mean that the offspring that grow from it look exactly like the mother plant. In contrast to cuttings, mutations can occur with seeds. break through the legacy of even distant ancestors of the rose. Seedlings are not single-variety; unless it is a wild type. But even this can suddenly look different than the parent rose, namely when the flowers with the pollen one

other variety or Kind pollinated became. In addition, wild roses usually always grow from rose seeds, not hybrid tea roses - these would have to be obtained through vegetative propagation.

Of course, you can also refine and grow roses yourself. Refining is actually not that difficult if you know a few techniques and work cleanly and with sensible (and sharp!) Tools. Roses are mostly oculated, d. H. the breeder transfers a rose eye to a mostly wild surface. The plants canbut also graft, whereby a whole shoot is transferred.
