Follow Hubert Fontaine's advice. #rosebush #grafting #August #propagation Hubert Fontaine suggests grafting a rose bush onto a rosehip hedge to produce beautiful, tall blooms. Rose Bud Grafting Period: July-August Choosing the Rose Bush to Graft • Choose a healthy rose bush • Take a stem • Check that the thorns can be easily removed with your thumb (this will also make it easier to remove the graft later) Choosing the Rootstock • The best rootstock for roses is the dog rose (Rosa canina) • In this case, this dog rose is in a hedge and has vigorous branches Taking the Graft On the previously removed stem 1. Take a piece of stem 2. Locate a bud or bud 3. Remove the leaves on both sides to facilitate handling 4. Cut the leaf at the base of the bud, leaving 1 cm of petiole 5. Using a grafting knife, make a cut under the bud containing the petiole. 6. Raise the blade under the eye without damaging it. 7. Hollow out the wood inside the scion Rootstock preparation, incision, and insertion • Choose a vigorous, healthy stem • In this case, Hubert Fontaine performed the graft on a branch halfway up the hedge… most of the time, nurserymen perform this grafting step by step on the main stem 1. Clear the future grafting point by removing a few leaves and thorns on either side 2. Using the sharp side of the grafting knife, make a T-shaped incision 3. Using the rounded part of the grafting knife, clear the edges of the incision 4. Insert the scion, petiole toward the top of the stem 5. Ensure that the bud is firmly in the T-shaped incision 6. Trim the excess scion above the bud if necessary 7. Tie with raffia Normally, if the graft has taken well, the petiole should fall off One month after the operation, the bud should begin to develop. The future rose bush will fully develop the following spring (hence the name dormant bud graft). Tip: Soak the raffia for at least 12 hours before using it. 0:00 Rose bud grafting 0:19 When to take the graft? 0:43 Rosehips, the ideal rootstock for roses 1:51 Preparing the graft 2:23 Inserting the graft 2:55 Tying with raffia 3:43 Conclusion
