Hello Rose Enthusiasts,
I’m new to the rose hybridizing community and excited to learn from all of you! I’ve been fascinated by roses for years and recently decided to try my hand at hybridizing my own varieties.
A few things I’m curious about:
-
Parent Selection – How do you choose which roses to cross for desirable traits like color, fragrance, and disease resistance?
-
Pollination Tips – Any advice on timing and technique to improve successful hybridization rates?
-
Seedling Care – How do you best nurture seedlings to ensure they grow strong and healthy?
-
Common Mistakes – What are some pitfalls beginners often encounter and how to avoid them?
I’d love to hear about your experiences, success stories, or any creative tips that could help a beginner get started. Thanks in advance for sharing your wisdom!
Looking forward to learning from this amazing community!
