Checking in on our Rose Stems...
Little Lakeview Conservatory LLC, used three methods for propagating wilting long stem roses.
- Using Fast Root and Planting in Dirt
- Using Honey, placing in a Potato and Planting in Dirt
- Placing in water with a water soluble fertilizer.

| Method 1. Using Fast Root and Planting in Dirt. |
 |
| 2.Using Honey, placing in a Potato and Planting in Dirt. |
 |
| There are still leaves attached and no signs of growth from the Rose Stems yet. And 4 week update... |
The Rose stems are dead, but I now have a bucket of Potatoes growing. By continuing to add dirt to the bucket these potato plants should keep growing. I may not have salvaged the roses, but I will have more potatoes soon! #growyourown #growalittle
 |
| 3. Placing in water with a water soluble fertilizer. |
 |
| The original leaves have fallen off and new leaves are sprouting in their places. |
 |
| The water propagation in test tubes is taking off the fastest. |
 |
... And the 4 week update.
 I may have accidentally cooked them,tried to revive them. Luckily my husband often brings home roses, so starting over again!

Started a week later we left our Peach Long Stem Roses trimmed up in their vase to propagate.
And the 4 week update...
Hoping to keep these ones going and plant outside when the threat of frost has passed.
