Propagating a Peace Rose from a Loved One's Garden

Propagating a Peace Rose from a Loved One's Garden

Two methods:

Cuttings (Preferred for Exact Clone)

• Take many 6-8 inch cuttings (some won't root).
• Use rooting hormone, perlite/vermiculite mix.
• Cover with plastic bottle (mini greenhouse).
• Best timing: dormant season (fall/spring), but summer works with leaf removal.

Digging & Moving Whole Plant

• Water well night before.
• Cut back to 18 inches, remove all leaves.
• Replant immediately in prepared hole.
• Water daily until new leaves appear.
