Description: How to Plant Rose Seeds When adding roses to the garden, landscapers and homeowners typically plant rose bushes they've purchased at the nursery or through suppliers. Starting roses by seeds isn't an option most novice gardeners would consider. But for those who are adventurous or interested in experimenting in hybridizing roses, planting roses by seed is a rewarding challenge. The process can be time consuming and is not the option for the gardener who wants roses in full bloom by the next spring.
Instructions 1.Collect seeds for planting. One way to get seeds is to collect them from established rose bushes. Roses must be left on the bush and allowed to go to seed before harvesting. Seeds are removed from the rose hip, and the outer shell of the hip should be discarded. 2.Test the seeds before planting. Put the seeds in water and discard the seeds that float. Seeds that float may be hallow. The plump, heavier seeds that sink in the water have a better chance of survival. 3.Purchase a flat container for planting the seeds. This will need to fit into your refrigerator. Consult with your gardening center to choose the best flat for your needs. 4.Mix equal parts sand, soil and peat moss. Consult with your gardening center, as they may have a pre-made mixture that you can purchase. You will need enough to fill the flat. 5.Fill the flat with the sand, soil and peat moss mixture. 6.Plant each rose seed ?-inch deep and space seeds 1 inch apart. 7.Place the flat in the refrigerator; the desired temperature will be about 40 degrees F. Keep in the refrigerator for about three months to germinate. 8.Remove the flat from the refrigerator and place in a sunny window, where the room temperature is between 65 to 70 degrees F. Water lightly. Do not overwater, and do not allow the soil to get overly dry. Transplant the heartiest of seedlings to the garden the following spring.
