Selecting Seeds

Choose good quality rose seeds from a reliable nursery or store. You can select as per your preference of rose species and colour.

Planting

3. Moisten the soil and place the seeds about 6 mm deep into the pot. 
4. Take a transparent plastic bag and wrap it around the pot to maintain humidity (Plants That Absorb Humidity) levels. Poke small holes in the plastic for the plants to breathe. 
5. Place your pot in a warm spot with lots of indirect sunlight.
6. Water your rose enough to keep the soil moist but avoid making it soggy.
