Can you replant roses that were received in a bouquet?


Question:I received a large bouquet of roses and wanted to know if you can plant the cutting and if they will survive?

Answers:
You would need a "greeh thumb" so to speak. I have never done it but have know a few who have. Plant it deep in the ground and keep it watered good. My mother and grandmother would say to turn a jar upside down over it. This helps keep moisture in and keeps it from drying out in the sun. You may need to break the lower leaves off so to give more energy to the rose. Plant the part where the leaves were broken off--hopefully a root will develop there. I would suggest leaving the jar on through the coming winter also even if it looks like it is going to live--for protection.
Good luck


No
No, that is not possible. You need the roots to go along with the roses so you can plant that part in the ground.
no
sorry, no :)
No but you can preserve them.
I'm pretty sure you need the roots to replant flowers and bushes.
negitive
No, sorry. Roses can be grafted to one another but you have to have living plants to do that even.
No, sorry you cant. But if you dry them right they will look beautiful!
No.
No. Cut roses won't take root that way. Once the stem has been cut away from the root system it's already doomed.
no, flowers start to die the moment they are cut.
Actually, you can although sometimes if a preservative is used it won't work. Planting a rosebush from a wedding bouquet has always been rather popular. My sister followed the same basic instructions listed below with a rose from her bouquet. The plant lasted longer than her marriage (7 yrs) and she left it back in California.

I would be willing to bet that none of the previous posters have even tried it.
No...they die before you can get them to root... so they can be planted
Well that sums that up, it is a definite ...
