Prepare the potatoes for your rose cuttings by using a screwdriver or drill bit slightly smaller than the diameter of the stems. Pierce the center of each potato with the tool. Now, carefully place the prepared rose cuttings into the holes, ensuring they fit snugly but not completely through the potatoes.

With the rose cuttings safely nestled in the potatoes, it’s time to proceed with planting. Plant the potatoes in the soil, making sure they are at least 3 inches deep. Gently tamp the soil around the potatoes to secure them in place. To safeguard the cuttings from extreme temperatures and maintain the necessary humidity, place jars over the planted cuttings. Keep the covers in place until the roots have taken hold.
Monitor the soil moisture, ensuring it remains adequately hydrated without drying out too quickly. If you have limited garden space, consider planting your cuttings in a 5-gallon pot and covering it with a plastic bag.
Regularly water your rose cuttings and keep a close eye out for signs of growth. Within approximately a month, your roses will establish roots, indicating successful propagation.
