If you recall, last fall I shared with you how Mrs. Watson
at the nursing home gave me her tip on propagating roses. Basically she took a cutting
in the fall, stuck it in the ground, covered it with a Mason jar and left it
alone until spring. That is exactly what I did with these roses (except, since
I didn’t have Mason jars, I substituted glass vases and plastic containers.) These are the results. It
can’t get much easier than this!

I also put some cuttings in the greenhouse. They are quite a
bit larger than the ones grown under the vases, but if one doesn’t have a
greenhouse, the jars worked very well.
By the way, if I promised you a Peggy Martin Rose and you haven't received it, please let me know.
