What You’ll Need:
- Fresh rose cutting (15–20 cm long)
- 4–6 peeled garlic cloves
- A clean glass jar
- Fresh water
Instructions:
- Prepare the cutting
Cut just below a node and remove lower leaves. - Place the garlic
Add peeled garlic cloves to the bottom of the jar. - Add water
Pour enough water to cover the garlic but not submerge the leaves. - Insert the rose cutting
The stem should lightly touch the garlic. - Change water every 2–3 days
This prevents stagnation and keeps the garlic effective. - Wait patiently
Roots usually appear within 10–20 days.
Why This Method Works So Well
- Garlic keeps harmful bacteria away, reducing cutting failure.
- The water-garlic mix acts as a mild natural stimulant.
- The cutting stays hydrated while forming roots stress-free.
- No soil means no soil-borne diseases during early growth.
This is especially useful for beginners or gardeners who prefer organic, low-cost solutions.
Tips for Best Results
- Use fresh garlic, not dried or powdered.
- Keep the jar in bright, indirect light.
- Avoid hot, direct sunlight during rooting.
- Once roots reach 3–5 cm, transplant gently into nutrient-rich soil.
