NO! 😞You CAN'T PROPAGATE ROSES from Bouquet Rose STEM CUTTINGS!🌹Shirley Bovshow/ EdenMakers
No! YOU CAN'T PROPAGATE ROSES FROM BOUQUET ROSE stem cuttings or store-bought roses!!! There's a growing number of videos and articles on the internet that claim that you can regrow roses from cuttings from long stem roses also known as bouquet roses, but IT'S NOT TRUE!!
The odds are stacked against a successful rose propagation for a number of reasons. Garden expert, Shirley Bovshow explains.
"Most bouquet roses travel thousands of miles from South America, Africa, and Australia before reaching the wholesale and retail florists who sell the roses to the consumer. By the time the consumer has a rose bouquet in their hands, it's been 7 to 10 days since the roses were cut from the plant!" Taking stem cuttings from bouquet roses is inferior to taking fresh cuttings from a lateral stem on a rose plant. Watch this video and understand why!
Shirley explains the interesting details about commercial flower roses that will make you a more informed rose plant grower! Of course, you can experiment with trying to propagate a bouquet rose, you only have time to lose! You might get lucky but the odds are against you.
I hope you will appreciate the fact that accurate information is very important to me!
DISCLAIMER: When I refer to "commercial cut roses" or "florist roses" I am not referring to local fresh cut organic roses or miniature roses that have a greater chance of rooting successfully.
I do mention that 'You may be able to root a florist rose but you would have to be very lucky and manage your expectations." I stand by that claim.
The purpose of this video is to share solid reasons why you should not EXPECT this method of propagation to be successful.
-Sure, in nature, there are exceptions to the rule, and when a florist rose successfully roots, this is an exception! In fact, when you use "proper" propagation techniques, even an experienced propagator may have only a 60 to 70% success rate, and that is considered good!
There are several reasons the odds are stacked against you when trying to root a cutting from a typical florist rose bouquet:
Rose cuttings root more successfully when they are "stuck" soon after cutting. The plant hormones are at their most potent level for creating roots, new shoots, and leaves.
Most commercial roses are imported from South America, Africa, and other countries around the world. By the time they get to the wholesaler, the retailer, then the consumer, florist roses would have been cut from 5 to 8 days prior!
Commercial cut roses are treated with different chemicals, (natural and man-made) that inhibit rooting to secure fresh-looking roses.
Florists often remove all the leaves, and thorns, (that lay above nodes) which are the growing points in stems. With no leaves, nodes, or damaged nodes, a rose cutting will not produce roots! The cutting may grow leaves but NO ROOTS! (I hear this a lot).
Commercial cut roses are NOT bred to be successful and reliable "garden roses" for climates outside of their greenhouses or unique outdoor climate
Many commercial roses are grafted onto a rootstock that promotes tall, turgid stems, large flowers, glossy leaves in an "artificially managed environment" These roses are bred to become "JUST A CUT ROSE!"
I compare many commercial cut roses to a movie set:
The sets are built to LOOK beautiful for a temporary display. These facades aren't built with structural integrity or for people to actually LIVE in the buildings. They only need to stand as long as the cameras are rolling and when the director says "cut" the walls come tumbling down!
The purpose of commercial cut roses is similar...they just have to look amazing for a total of 15-20 days, which is the typical shelf life of a florist rose.
Garden and landscape roses are bred with the opposite goal in mind to function and produce roses for the long haul. So they are the most reliable source for cuttings!.
There are more biological reasons why commercial cut rose stems are not optimal for rooting!
