As I need more plants for new plot,
I decided to create my own plant nursery. This spring to do this, I took
small pots with good soil and cut a lot of cuttings of decorative bushes,
roses, evergreens, perennials.
Since I did not have much experience in growing young plants, I thought
that all new cuttings would give me new plants, but it turned out that
only a few of them rooted and grew leaves. Now you can see some of them on
the garden shelves.

Initially,
the cuttings of roses were placed in the greenhouse, then when I decided
that they were rooted, I moved the pots outdoors. Some new roses look
good, others seem sick. The problem is that it is said that only young
stems can be used for rooting. Now young and last year's rose stems are
growing in pots.

I have the climbing rose Flammentanz and want to do some cutting to
root and plant them in the new plot. Now it's so pretty, blooms with
big red flowers.
Have you ever grown your own plants? What is your experience?
Looks like your plant nursery has been a great success, Nadezda, and you have used the additional space to good advantage.
ReplyDeleteI hope to grow up all young plants till autumn and then to plant them in additional garden, David.
DeleteIt’s good when you can increase your growing space.
ReplyDeleteI agree Sue, more space - more plants.
DeleteDear Nadezda,
ReplyDeletewow, you rootet roses. I tried it twice and it didn't work. Good, if I see you succeeded I have to make it again.
Your plants are super lovely!
Happy days and all my best
Elisabeth
I try to root roses and to have my own ones, to save money Elisabeth. To root them you need to cut their young stems in spring. Good luck!
DeleteKaikkea mielenkiintoista ja kaunista kasvamassa.
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked my plant nursery.
DeleteYour plants looks very vell, Nadezda! I have never tried to make my own roses before, but now I will try it.
ReplyDeleteI have made plants of Physocarpus before, and they grow very well. I have also divided many hosta, and they grow like grass here.
Flammentanz is a very hardy rose, and I had it in my old garden. I remember it became very big :)
I love Flammentanz rose as well Marit. Now I have some young roses and will plant them in new space. You're right Physocarpus is rooted well, want to make a fence of it.
DeleteEn el huerto sembramos Periquitos.No necesitan mucho cuidado brota sola cada año, este aún no han salido las flores, la planta sigue verde cuando salgan te la enseñaré.
ReplyDeleteBuen jardín Nadezda. Cuídate.
Un abrazo.
Hola, Laura
DeleteMe tomó un tiempo descubrir lo que llamas Periquitos, esto es Antirrhinum. me gusta esta flor, no es perenne aqui and tuve que sembrarlas cada primavera. De verdad es realmente muy hermosa.
Feliz sabado.
Beautiful red rose!
ReplyDeleteYes, it is Anne.
DeleteLos rosales se ven muy bien y lo demás también. Yo suelo plantar de todo cactus, geranios, rosales y mucho más. Un abrazo Nadezda.
ReplyDeleteTeresa, creo que el geranio (pelargonium) se propaga fácilmente, me gusta hacerlo. Las rosas son más malhumoradas en nuestro clima. Te deseo éxito en el cultivo de nuevas plantas.
DeleteWow, Nadezda, your nursery looks indeed a great success! Such beautiful plants!
ReplyDeleteI think we have spoken about this before: I have grown for example Cornus, Ribes and some hardy roses from cuttings. I have tried to reproduce roses also this year, the very dry June meant lots of carrying water to them.
My seed sowing hasn't been so successful. The best results came with lavender, the plants are still alive after very strange winters. :)
Thank you for your comment today. No, I didn't know there's a Russian "Sherlock Holmes" series! I googled it and it looked very good.
Why didn't you like all episodes of (Cumberbatch) "Sherlock"? I didn't like all of them either. :)
I remember you wrote about growing shrubs and hardy roses, Sarah. In fact, breeding your own is much cheaper than buying new ones. I have never sown lavender - I am afraid that this is not hardy to our winter.
DeleteI think Mr. Doyle wrote his Sherlock with a different character, habits and behavior than Cumberbatch plays in the new series.
Lovely roses... I missed my rose blooms
ReplyDeleteYour roses will bloom happily Endah.
DeleteHugs!
Thank you Agnes.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see your nursery. My mother also likes gardening, including pomegranate trees and asoka.
ReplyDeleteHave a good day.
Greetings from Indonesia.
Hello Himawan Sant,
Deleteglad to see you on my blog. Greetings to your mother.
Thanks for stopping by!
Dear Nadezda!
ReplyDeleteIt's great that you enlarged your garden. I guess how beautiful you will take care of this place.
I have little experience in growing plants from seeds. Only vegetables and lupins.
Hugs and warm greetings.
Anita
Sure your experience is useful, Anita. Good luck in growing from seeds.
DeleteHappy weekend!
Härligt att kunna ta sticklingar eller odla från frö...just nu testar jag med rosmarin och lavendel! Hoppas det går bra :)
ReplyDeleteHa en härlig helg!
Titti
Titti, I'm glad you liked my plant nursery.
DeleteThanks for stopping by
Hugs!
Good to have increased the space of your garden, so you can have even more plants.
ReplyDeleteYour climbing rose Flammentanz is wonderful.
Have a nice Sunday
Hugs and all the best
I love this rose very much, it blooms a long time. My garden became bigger, Maria and I need to work more to make it nice.
DeleteAll the best!
More garden space, how fabulous. Congratulations on the success of your nursery. My favourite method of increasing my plants is by division, boring, but never fails.
ReplyDeleteMore space and more plants, you're right Alistair.
DeleteI do love divide plants, especially hostas, bulbs, but I can't divide rose or rhododendron. Therefore I need to do cuttings and to root them. Sure your experience is successful.
