Rose Cutting - 3rd Week

The cutting is now 3 weeks old. I'm sad to say I lost that lower right hand set of leaves, which is turning yellow in this picture. But you can see on the left hand side a new set of leaves!

Aphids decided to take up residence in those tender new leaves, too, and I didn't realize it until I saw large ones crawling around the rest of the cutting. Luckily I had some rose spray left from last season, and now that's taken care of. On the lower branch to the right is another leaf bud coming on, so I hope it keeps going.

I'm still cautious about calling it a success yet, but it has been fun to watch!
