Description

The listing, BREATH TAKING, 4 CHINA ROSE SEEDS, EASY GROWING INSTRUCTIONS has ended.

Growing roses from seeds can be easier than you think ! Patience is required, but worth it !Stratify your rose seeds to encourage them to grow better. To stratify your seeds, place them on a paper towel that has been soaked in a solution that contains half water and half peroxide to prevent mold from occurring. Fold the towel to keep the seeds inside and then put them all into a resealable bag. Place the bag inside a refrigerator . Keep the seeds in the refrigerator for six to 10 weeks. Another method to stratify is to place the seeds in a tray of potting soil, cover the tray and then place it in the fridge for a few weeks.
Create a potting soil mixture that is ideal for rose-growing by filling pots or trays . Push the seeds down into the soil about 1 inch. Place them outside in direct sunlight once the threat of frost is gone and water the soil when it looks dry. The seeds will likely begin to sprout in about six weeks.
Transplant the seedlings into separate containers once they have grown a few inches tall. Be careful not to touch the plant's roots during this process. The use of a spoon may be helpful. IF IN DOUBT, DON'T BID. . I'VE HAD VERY CRUEL NEGATIVE COMMENTS ON PAST LISTINGS.THESE ARE NOT THE APPLAUSE, BUT BLUE MAGIC.

I have never been able to grow any rose in the house. Not even miniatures. They need the cold to be able to lie dormant for the season

I don't think gorgeous or stunning really captures the AWE of the breath-taking blue of the rose! I live in Texas, will they grow here? Fanned, watching and praying to be able to bid :O)

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
