I'd like to take cuttings from my Japanese Maples and from some roses to start more plants.Is there a best time of the year to do this? I've tries this many times (using rooting agents)and always failed. Any hints would be appreciated.

Never heard of Maple Japanese cuttings. Still I have a bunch of young tree's. My email without the golf phrase works and you my be enchanted for nada. I live in S jersey. Roses I hear can be rooted.

It is unlikely a maple tree cuttings will root (please let me know if this works). Roses are often grafted, so here you may get a weak rose for your efforts (but cuttings will root). Best bet is buy new plants. Plant roses now, plant maples in the fall.
