In just a short amount of time, you can turn one single rose into an entire bush bursting with beautiful blooms – and the best part? You don’t have to break the bank to enjoy a gorgeous floral display in your home!
We all know how much joy flowers can bring to our lives – from brightening up a room to boosting our overall well-being. However, buying fresh blooms can be costly and they don’t last long. Growing your own flowers is not only a cost-effective solution but it also has mental health benefits. Research has shown that gardening can have a positive impact on our mental health.
But not everyone has a green thumb or the time to tend to a full garden. That’s why we’re sharing an amazing tip that will have you enjoying a garden full of roses in no time – no special skills required! All you need is a single rose, a potato, a plastic bottle, potting soil, and a pot.
Yes, you read that correctly – a rose and a potato! It may sound strange, but it’s a proven method that really works.
Transforming a single rose into a beautiful, flourishing bush has never been easier – and it all starts with a simple potato! Here’s how to do it:
First, choose a rose that you love and remove all of its leaves. Cut off the head of the rose diagonally, leaving around 3 centimeters of the stem. If the head still looks fresh, you can display it in a small vase for a touch of instant beauty.
Next, take your potato and drill a hole into it that’s just wide enough for the rose stem. Make sure the stem fits snugly into the hole without wobbling. Fill the bottom of your chosen pot with 5 centimeters of potting soil, then place the potato on top. Fill the rest of the pot with more potting soil.
