Things you have to concern on planting

Planting roses in pots.
Here important things are the pot and soil mixture. It is important to concern to use a big pot. Keep about 10 days in a shade after planting. Supply less amount of water in these days. If the plant is established one do not keep it with others. If it is a new one treat with some bactericide. 

Propagate by cut stem
Most suitable for this type of propagation are roses that easy to cultivate. Cut 9 inches piece in the middle of the stem and put it into water. Plant with spaces between two descents of about 8 inches. Use a hormone to stimulate buds. Roots will settle down within 1-2 weeks. After that you can change the plant to a pot.

Budding
Most suitable for roses is downward t-shape cut. Carefully cut t-shape in wild rose bud. Get a bud of flowered branch and bud to the t-cut and wrap with polethene. Keep in a shade. Loose the wrap after 4 weeks and re-wrap.
