Propagating Roses from Cuttings: Unlocking the Secrets of Successful Cloning | November 21, 2023

1. Optimal Timing for Cuttings

The ideal time to take cuttings depends on various factors, such as your location, climate, objectives, and situation. While late winter or early spring is commonly suggested, conflicting advice exists, with some advocating summer or fall.

In general, the highest success rate occurs under mild, cool, or warm conditions. Avoid extreme weather, including freezing cold or scorching heat. Depending on your region, spring and fall are usually the best times for temperate zones, while winter works in areas without freezing concerns.

Taking cuttings in the fall, after the blossoms have withered, has proven successful for many. However, this method requires keeping the starts indoors during winter.

For those who prefer rooting cuttings directly in the garden, do it in the spring after new growth appears. This method can be convenient when you don’t want to maintain a plant indoors for months. Outdoor-started cuttings often acclimate better and grow faster than those transplanted from indoors.
