My grandma took a cutting from her grandmother when she married my grandfather after WW2. He passed away couple years ago, and she is now 91. I have the chance to clone her roses and gift them to the rest of the family. I'm going to clone twice as many as i can, and share them with my massive family. Thanks for the tips and tricks. I just want to preserve that legacy. For some reason, I find great value in that. Thanks for the hard work and wisdom. This plant is over 100 years old, and I'd hate to see it fade away.

My grandmother just passed away and she loved her roses the house is being sold so I’ve decided I’m going to take some of her roses off her bush and replant them thank you for this it means a lot

Also as a handy little note... The bottoms that you cut off your drink bottles can also be re-used as a seedling container. Just pop a few drainage holes in the bottom, add growing medium of your choice, and voila! Seed trays. Nothing wasted! 😊 Happy growing and God bless everyone.

Props for taking the time out to film this in multiple sessions over the span of a few months, and it’s done so well! Thanks for this!

I’m so glad I found someone who gets as excited about seeing roots as I do! People think I’m nuts too

We have had a scented rose bush, pink/white mix, in the family for over 200 years, all the family have taken cuts for decades, and the roses are blooming in my families gardens throughout Ireland.

Watched this video last year. Right after blooming, I cut the flowers of and planted the cuttings with the bottles on top. 3 out of 5 made it. I thought like this I had the best chance since all the energy was going into the top where the flowers were. In this way I could use that energy for my plantings. And gues what ? This year the new roses even started blooming ! Can you imagine, after one year ? I was totally baffled. Thanks for the tips because now I've been able to "reproduce" my more than 60 year old climbing rose !!! Greatings from Holland ( EU)

Mike I followed ur instructions. I must say thank u. I have a 90 % success for all my cuttings.

Ok. I just have to say this: every man, woman, & child needs a person in their life that is this excited about gardening. I raised a bunch of gardening kids thankfully. I bet this young man is too!

Your unashamed excitement about roses and soda bottles is refreshing

"... and what do you do with the flowers? You take them inside for your wife" AWWW! I had to pause the video and just comment on how wholesome and loving the delivery of that was. I'm watching this video because I want to take cuttings from a rose plant called Shiela's Perfume, it has the same name as my aunt who passed away last year. She had Down Syndrome and died in her 40s. I wanted to take the cuttings and grow plants to give to all of her siblings (my uncles and my mom), she was the youngest of four. Thank you for sharing this video and having an amazing attitude. Your video was the first one that showed in the results when I typed in the search, and I'm glad I clicked on it. Happy growing!

I love that you are sharing a plain and simply way to take cuttings. I'm in the UK and the cost of living crisis means I cannot afford the luxury of buying loads of new plants. This video is an inspiration.

I'm very jealous that you have beautiful little garden helpers. Mine are grown and gone but the flowers they helped plant years ago are a daily reminder of the giggles and ew, gross moments we shared. Suck up every minute of this time off with your family! You'll all remember it as one of the best times ever!!

Mike, I'm just seeing this and how excited I was to see it. My mother-in-law - way back in 1968 - taught me about rooting rose cuttings. She simply would trim the branch as you did, trim the thorns, dip it in the power root tone and "stick it in the ground with a jar over it". She had a spot just outside her kitchen door where her "babies started". She would watch the day, and if it was cloudy and coolish, she'd leave the jar as it was. If it was bright sunshine, she'd raise the jar on flat stones or such until nightfall. It never failed. Two years ago, I discovered an ancient climbing rose in our bushes, totally overgrown with monkey grass and such. I was thrilled! I dug it up, placed it in a showy spot and kept it watered. It grew wonderfully last year, no flowers, but great bush development. This year, right now, it's covered in buds. And it has the most wonderful "old climbing rose" scent. As the flowers fade, I will try some transplants...because...who ever has "enough"?? Thank you for your video!

Lost my Mom 3 years ago. She had a gorgeous, fragrant rose bush. I've tried twice to take cuttings. After watching this, I'm excited to try your method & I'm praying for success! Thank you so much‼️💞

You're very motivating and encouraging!

My Grandpa taught me how to garden and I love it! He planted roses 33 years ago and he would cut them and bring them in every few days for my Grandma. She passed a few years ago and he passed last year. I can't wait to propagate those after seeing this, thank you! ❤

I’m happy for this man. He obviously is so happy with what he does. I love to see it.

Thank you so much! I used your technique on my mom's roses and one from my sister. I did it last August, left them in pots in the ground thru a hard winter, and planted them in April. One has a flower coming, ☺️. Now, I am making starts from a rose I bought my granddaughter when she was small. I'm so excited! Thank you!!
