The rootstock is the Dutch rose of four seasons. After selection, it is picked and dug in early winter or early spring and cultivated intensively. Generally, before sprouting in spring or three seasons, when the branches are mature and the axillary buds are full, use a knife to cut the scion, cut it five to ten centimeters from the ground of the rootstock, then align the scion closely to the cut, and finally wrap and bind it with a plastic bag or plastic tape.

Selection of varieties

No matter which grafting method is best, it is better to choose the traditional rose that blooms once in late spring and early summer, or the double season rose that blooms twice a year, but it should be crossbred in recent years. Among many varieties, the best one is the Dutch rose with bud grafting, with strong fragrance and long flowering period.

Preparations before grafting

Choose a wild rose or rose as rootstock. After selection, dig in early winter or spring and cultivate in a centralized way, waiting for grafting.

The specific steps of grafting

Grafting was carried out on a sunny morning in the appropriate season. First of all, scion should be strong, full of buds and leaves, and free of diseases and insect pests. Cut scion with a knife, and there should be a small area of cortex with xylem around the cut buds. Cut a cut of the same size five to ten centimeters from the ground of the rootstock, align the scion with the cut, remove the petiole, expose the upward bud eye, and finally wrap it with a plastic bag or plastic tape.

Management after grafting

After grafting, water in time, then water in time. In the process of plant growth, prune properly and cut off redundant parts to ensure healthy growth. Half a month to a month after grafting, it will be completely healed, and then plastic ties can be removed. After that, we should start to pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests.
