Oooh nice! Good one!
I am going to try propagating cuttings this year, have to see how it goes.
Can get free begonia from the neighbour, those are super easy to root in water, but roses I've never done.Cut them 30 cm, semi-hard wood, take most leaves off, use rooting powder, ensure the soil drains...OK, but there is an element of luck me thinks :)
Well I did it, the flowers are gone but I managed to get 5 sticks off the one piece I cut. Should be a pinky white!
There's a Rosa laevigata(Cooperi) that I can't reach without a ladder☹️.
Visited a friend an got cuttings from a rosa mutabilis.
The wood strawberry bushes have been going mad under the cover of neighbor's conifer.
The rose I feared was on its last legs has finally flowered as well. Crazy Fashion, from NIPR.
