Green Thumbs-up: Mind-Blowing Gardening Hacks Every Plant Parent Needs to Know!
Planting Roses the Potato Way
Believe it or not, your spuds have a new calling beyond the dinner plate—they’re about to become the best buds for your roses. Planting rose cuttings in potatoes is a hack as quirky as it is clever. The moisture-rich potato keeps the cuttings hydrated, while the eyes of the potato encourage root growth.
Simply bore a hole in the potato, slip in a rose cutting, and plant the whole ensemble in the ground. The potato breaks down in the soil, nourishing the young roots as they develop. So not only do you give those leftover taters a second life, but you also set the stage for a rose revival in the garden.
