Hi everyone, nice to meet you! I usually post in the daylilies forum, but today I have a question about roses.
I just bought a couple of award winning roses (Meilland, from France) for my MIL.

I was curious about reproducing them but don't want to cut a branch and ruin the plants.. reading on the internet I found that roses can be reproduced by leaves cutting. Some say you take a leaf, then cut along the veinings (doing a cross) and put it on potting mix, then cover with a thin layer of potting mix again.
I thought I could do this, but wanted to ask advices from experts. I guess the leaf should be kept humid, right? Any help much appreciated! Many thanks!
