Only one stem had a few small leaves for potato rose propagation method
Though a large number of roses were purchased to test the rose propagation method using potatoes, most of the stems became dry, black in color and withered within a week .
Only the stem of one white rose plant was broken by the birds and other pests managed to survive .
This small stem had a few leaves which withered and dried after some time.
So using potatoes for rose propagation was not very effective, other methods are being tested.
