How to Grow Roses from Cuttings

If you want to save money on growing roses or would like to share roses with your family and friends you can do so by propagating your roses from cuttings.

Growing roses from cuttings is fairly easy. For those of you who have never tried it you can check out How to Grow Roses From Cuttings for a full tutorial with step by step information.

I use the above method for all my roses but I have heard of a new trend lately.... using wet newspapers and a dark closet. I haven't tried it yet as I am waiting for more info on what roses do best with it and what the success rate tends to be. I have had several roses root using the normal method from cuttings so I don't want to mess up a good thing.

If anyone has ever grown their cuttings from newspaper please share! We would love to hear about what worked, didn't work and what roses you used.
