What happens to white roses if you want to graft a red rose stem on their roots?

Answer 1

LOL you won't get a pink or striped rose. You'll get a red rose and possibly some white ones if the root stock continues to thrive.

Answer 2

Most roses are grafted onto only a few varieties of rootstock. The one used in my area actually flowers scarlet, they just cut off the rootstock and graft whatever variety they like, any colour. The rose then grows into the variety grafted on top. Unless you let the rootstock grow again and then you get its flowers plus the grafted roses flowers.

I noticed in the rose catalogues this year you could actually get multigrafted roses, which had had two or more different varieties growing on the one rootstock. They were very nice especially the white and red roses on the same bush.

No you won't get pink roses, just what you have grafted on. To get the different colours they cross pollinate the flowers then collect the seed and grow. They plant thousands of seeds and see what chance colours, shapes etc they get. Out of thousands they then pick the best and trial for hardiness etc sometimes in different countries. They then market them all over the world. Sometimes you can get a chance 'sport' or different shoot growing on the rose, this is what happened to the 'Iceberg' rose (White) a chance shoot actually flowered pink. This stem was then propagated and this is how they got the Pink, and Burgundy Iceberg roses.

Answer 3

probly get red roses

some might be pink or stripped

mostly red though

I want to do some grafting experiments , to grow a living house or treehouse, people are doing that, it takes time.

Also the stone fruits can all be grafted together, like a peach, plum, cherry tree

also, apple and pear can be grafted together

just match the cambium layers carefully.
