Looking good! How exciting. Show us how it progresses and if it makes a good garden rose.

Congratulations that is awesome!

That is beyond thrilling. I'm impressed with (and maybe a little jealous of, :-)) ) your grafting success. I'm going to try that this year.

I've gotten really good at fruit trees over the years, maybe that's why my rose one took?
Let me know if you want pointers...:)

Way to go!! I've never tried grafting. You sure did a great job!

So I exciting! I got it to root a few years ago but it died when I had to leave town to help care for my brother. I had been keeping my eyes open for another bunch of them.

Update!
So I killed my grafted one when I broke it off with the trash can.
However, one of the rooted ones survived, I planted it into a larger pot and it has a BUD!! So excited! I will update when it opens.

That bud looks great!! Good job!

Sorry about the grafted one, but I'm excited to see that bud bloom.

Congratulations, Carla!

How exciting! Please keep showing the progress!

Tiny, but it has the coloring of Cherry Brandy !!!

Cute!

Blows my mind that 4 months ago this was a stem in a bouquet in the Safeway floral display!

Yay!

Oooh, so beautiful! Is it more difficult to propagate florists roses than to propagate garden roses? And do they have to be grafted or can you grow them own root? Thanks!

Have a nice evening,

Congratulations, that is exciting! I have attempted to root some cuttings but so far no signs of any growth. Great job!

Damask, I look forward to Carla's experience, but I have read that many florist's roses are treated so that they will not root easily. That's what make Carla's success all the more exciting!

Thanks Vaporvac!

Excellent!!! The buds are soooo pretty!!

Our high 90s has bleached it a little, but it's doing a lot better than most of my roses. Amazing for a baby, and for a florist's rose!

Ooooh!! Yes!! So pretty! It's doing great in the heat!!

Beautiful!

8 days, still hanging on!!

Those striking colors are amazing!!

It has so many petals!
I wouldn't have thought from the original rose from Safeway. And it lasts so long, the bud broke color Sept 22, and still going even in the heat, we hit 102 today. Plus no blackspot so far, really surprising for a florist's rose.

This is so exciting! I can't believe it came from a bouquet! You are very skilled at propagating roses! What a beautiful rose, I love the color!!!

12 days! Almost gone but still hanging on!!
Just got my first State of Grace since spring, and it is similar to this Cherry Brandy rose in the later stages!

Way to go Carla!! It's hanging in there! :) :)

Carla that's such a gorgeous rose and so inspiring that you managed to get it to grow and thrive!!!
