Roses are generally used for cutting propagation, and very few seeds are used for planting. 

One is because the seed germination rate is low, the other is because the seed reproduction will degenerate, and the third is that the seeds are not easy to get, but no matter how difficult it is, it does not mean it is impossible. See how to plant rose seeds.


The seeds of rose flowers are different from the seeds of ordinary plants. Its seed coat is particularly hard, and it is difficult to absorb water and respiration metabolism. In addition, its seed germ is not fully developed. After harvesting, a post-ripening process is required. There are some natural inhibitors in the rose seeds, which can inhibit the germination of the seeds. Therefore, it is necessary to undergo a germination treatment before planting rose seeds.


If you want to use rose flower seeds to grow rose flowers smoothly, you must understand its characteristics.

1. Treatment of rose seeds before sowing
The rose seeds are first obtained and soaked in water. The seeds that float on the water are hollow seeds, and the seeds that sink to the bottom are full and usable seeds.


Soak and disinfect the rose seeds, and then prepare a container, fill it with a proper amount of wet sand, and sprinkle the seeds on the wet sand, cover the upper layer with 3 to 5 cm of wet sand, and then put them into minus 2 degrees in the refrigerator freezer, refrigerate for about 60 days, and then take it out, you can start normal planting.


When the roses seeds are placed in the cold storage room of the refrigerator when they are moist, if you are lucky, you can see the rose seeds will germinate by themselves and the roots will grow quickly.


2. Prepare potting soil
When planting, prepare a pot of loose potting soil, which can be prepared by mixing river sand, leaf soil and organic fertilizer, and pay attention to disinfection to avoid breeding insects, so that the nutrients are sufficient and the air permeability is good, which is more conducive to later growth.


3. Sowing rose seeds
Plant the germinated rose seeds in pots.The suitable temperature of the rose is 15-25℃, so the planting time should not be in the cold winter season. It is best to plant after the spring thaw and the temperature gradually stabilizes. At this time, planting is good for the late growth of the rose. The rose planting time should not be too early or too late, generally March to April is the most suitable.


After it grows true leaves, you need to spray some liquid fertilizer on the foliage, 1-2 times a week. In the process of growth, it does not need to make up for the need for light. It must be placed in a place where the sun can be directly exposed. If there is less light, it will easily wither and die. It is also necessary to keep the soil and air moist, spray water on the leaves and loosen the soil.


About one month after the rose seeds are sowed, the rose will grow buds.But it should be noted that some varieties of roses will not bloom in the first year.


In a few days, you can enjoy the beautiful rose flowers！


The above is the introduction of how to grow rose seeds and the method and time of rose planting. I hope it will be helpful for everyone to plant rose flowers. Seed planting of rose is not commonly used. We usually plant it by cutting, and planting with seeds is suitable for special varieties with unstable traits.
