Description

The listing, 5 seeds of rainbow roses has ended.

You get 5 seeds rainbow rose I bought off of the intrenet to try for myself thought I could spare some for my listia buds . 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.
Apply fertilizer to the roses after you transplant them. Either purchase the variety that can be sprinkled around the plant or the type that can be added to the water. Fertilize the bush again in the spring, summer and a few weeks before frost occurs .thanks for looking

They will not grow this way, you have to inject dye into them. They will grow white if they germinate at all. Alot of these rose seeds are very old.

question are the rainbow roses pictured color sprayed? I can't imagine them actually growing on the rose bush as they are pictured! Also I've never heard of being able to grow roses-clementis-and like plants from seeds.
plus I've been looking for Ranunculus seeds but have had an imposiable time finding. Ann
