If your rose is a grafted variety, it might be trickier than taking a cutting. Can't hurt to try the cutting and rooting hormone route. In the greenhouse, we would put the cutting from green stem tissue directly into sterile soilless medium and keep it moist until roots form at the node that's under the soil surface. When the root ball is developed enough, the cutting can be transplanted into a container big enough to support a 4" root ball and kept fed and watered until this container is full of root. Then it would likely be safe to transplant out to a protected area in the yard.
The problem with taking cuttings is that many roses are grafted onto highly disease resistant root stock. When you take a cutting above this root stock, you get the lovely plant you thought you had all along, but it may not be as hardy or tolerant of disease as the original. If you take the cutting below the graft, you get the less lovely, but tough plant tissue to propagate...

If the circumstances are good there is no clarification why it is going to no longer improve. As to the known of blooms, if any, you may could wait and watch. I as quickly as had a cut back rose root and improve - I have been given it in a bouquet and caught the stem in a pot as help for yet another small plant ! even with the undeniable fact that even yet it grew approximately 2 ft, it died of 'die decrease back' thereafter. concepts you, roses dont improve that properly here in Mumbai first of all, neither am I a rose grower, I lots choose different flora, so merely because of the fact my rooted reducing died does no longer mean something. Do positioned up your effects, it may be exciting to be attentive to.

You can put your cutting under a jar in the shade. Keep the soil moist. After a few weeks you should see new growth. Remove the jar and don't let the soil dry out. Come next year you can move the plant to where ever you want it to stay.

Okay, I've got a link for you with step-by-step instructions on how to do it. Good luck -- but don't be surprised if something different pops up! Many roses are grafted and may "sport" back to something totally different along the way. Have fun!!

Clip off a branch at a node and put it in water with rooting compound.
