Rose from seed!

Hello!

So two months ago I came across some rose seeds on ebay roughly £3 for 50 bought red, blue, white and yellow crazy i know!
Bought a mini non heated propagator and peat pellets 5 weeks later we have a little one spring up [emoji3] .

Rehoused yesterday!


Is there anything else i should be doing or preparing for?

Initially my plan was to create a large rectangular rose bush ( 4x5x2ft HWD )
But reading the forum and being a new gardener is there a particular type of rose where this is possible with a mix of colours?

Thank you in advance!

 

Rose seed is a bit of a gamble unfortunately Wildsam. Germination can be erratic and they quite often aren't true to the parent rose. Cuttings are more successful.

Roses aren't really the type of plant for a rectangular shape, having said that I think the only one that you would have this type of success with is one of the Rugosa's as it can be used as hedging.

 

It wasn't this was it? https://www.google.com/search?q=rainbow rose

if so it won't come true as those types are all dyed/photoshopped, I wish you luck with your seeds though

 

I have grown some roses from seed taken from the rose hip. They are still very small at one year old and currently reside in my polytunnel. My only advice to you would be don't let them get too wet. I lost a few to dampness.
I am sure your roses will be beautiful whichever colour they decide to be. Good luck with them.
