Propagate from Pruning

What I call spring rose pruning is usually in late winter. It's the "structural" pruning where I take off more stems than any other time of year. Of course I removing quite a few stems in poor condition: dead, diseased, damages and thin. But when I take off thick healthy stems for size, shape or thinning purposes, it can feel a bit wasteful. Here's an option: try the same hardwood cutting technique I showed in my previous video here:    • Easy Winter Cuttings: Hardwood Propag...   It's the same method if you take them in early vs. late winter.

Also, a little show and tell!

    this is going to be so important for me this year! thank you, my late grammas house along with the garden will be getting sold this year probably earlier in the season than i would like and im going to be going in the spring to try and propagate anything i can, i know she had a rose though and ive been worried about hardwood cutting. so maybe ill take as many as i can with the cut back and leave the new owners a nice refreshed plant

    Thank you for always presenting clear, concise and factual information that gardeners can actually use. It's so very refreshing.

    Always so instructive, Jason. Thank you very much. 🌹🥀⚘️
  • @MyFocusVaries
    I thought I'd get to this in the fall, but hopefully tomorrow. You're my garden calendar reminder! 😂
  • @valeriezendiver263
    Firstly, I LOVE spotty dotty too, so your commentary on them was super interesting. Secondly, thanks for the encouragement about cuttings. I’ve been snipping and sticking but wasn’t sure if I was wasting my time or not. This gives me hope 🤞🏻
  • @gardentours
    Thank you very much for sharing. I'm going to try it with some of my nice roses 🌹
  • @maralensoeur5378
    This was sitting on the top of my phone for a few days to remind me to watch it! And I did and I am always so thankful for your information!! Thank you
  • @budgetgardeningvita
    Thanks for sharing! Our ground is frozen here and I'm planning to take hardwood cuttings soon from my hydrangeas, some roses, etc. I was going to pot the cuttings up and leave the pots outside in the elements. Fingers crossed! 🤞🏼

    I asked this question about the possibility to root the spring prunings in another channel last week, got no answer, but you answered it here - so I got my answer anyway😁 I must hug you for reading my mind🤗 I plan to do this with my fruit trees and roses - whatever survives I will be happy. My concern was about the fact that a tree is still in dormancy and there are no juices flowing to start a rooting process. But if you say roses can do this than definitely many fruit trees are capable of it as well!
  • @emmalavenham
    Thank you. This is just what I need - one of my roses looks like it’s being discontinued

    I'm in zone 9B, I took some hardwood cuttings after your video on it.Instead of in the ground I put some in an outdoor raised bed and some in 3 in pots that were also left outdoors in a protected location. Nearly everything has rooted and leaves are coming out. This was incredibly easy and now you are tempting me to try more with my pruning castoffs.
