For the beginner this is probably the easiest way to take cuttings.

Not much equipment is needed, just a clear quart-size glass jar and some cuttings of your rose.

Cut a piece of rose stem about 6 inches long. MOve it to your new home.

Remove the bottom set of leaves, and just stick the stem into the ground (or into a pot) a couple inches deep, and cover with a jar or bottle. You will need to periodically water the soil around the jar, otherwise the rose stem will dry out.

It will take a couple of months for the rose stem to take root and begin leafing out with its new growth.

The best time of year is spring or early fall. If you live in a mild climate, then winter and summer can also be successful for rooting roses. Intense summer heat of 100 degrees is not conducive for taking cuttings, nor are 32 degree or below winters.
