    Ive not had much luck with roses. Maybe ive been over complicating things.



    The rose ive been taking cutting off is 53 years old. Maybe that makes it more difficult for cutting to take.

    Try a few at the end of summer after flowering with new growth, I don't make a hole I just push them into the ground probably about six inches and forget about them till spring, I forget about a lot of things now image

    Morning all,last year I contacted by email and phone all the hormone suppliers I could find, only one replied this one I already knew and was in Nottingham, and at the moment its raining at last erein Muns Norfolk so im in doors for a bit sharpening secutairs and stuff so I cant remember the name of the company at pres and the hormone powder is in the greenhouse BUT they contacted me and assured me that the recommended shelf life which they agreed to put on the label in future was( 2 TWO ) years after which is pot luck,.,straight from the horses mouth you might say,2 years and they thought this was an average time for any H/Powder....
