Green-flowered roses are unusual ornamental forms. One well-known example is Rosa chinensis 'Viridiflora', which produces distinctive green, leaf-like floral structures. Rose plants can be grown from seeds, but seedlings may not retain the exact characteristics of their parent plant, especially when the parent is a hybrid or named cultivar.
Many Rosa species require moist stratification to overcome seed dormancy. This commonly involves keeping seeds in a moist growing medium under refrigerated conditions for several weeks or months. Some species also benefit from a warm period before cold stratification. The required treatment varies by species, so follow the appropriate seed preparation instructions.
Roses grown from seeds generally take longer to flower than plants grown from established cuttings or grafted stock. Depending on the species, seed treatment, and growing conditions, flowering may begin after one or more growing seasons. Some varieties require several years to reach flowering maturity.
