Growing tea roses and grafting

Can you grow the cuttings from the hybrid tea rose bush?

No, hybrid tea roses do not grow on their own roots and are grafted onto a wild root stock. This is because the hybrids have such weak roots and do not grow well from cuttings. Some old fashioned or species roses can be grown from cuttings however. Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
