Description

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

Growing roses from seeds can be easier than you think ! Patience is required, but worth it ! This rose is called Eb Tide.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.

yes, you have to start them in the fridge soon. Or you can wait until a few weeks before your last frost place them in flats cover with soil and plastic wrap, place in the fridge then transplant to bigger pots. It will take 4-6 weeks for them to come up. They should be a good size to plant around Memorial Day. Worth the patience ! I already have my seeds in the fridge.Will place in a sunny room in January.Hope to plant in the ground in April
