    Sadly I think you may have wasted your money Nash. Rose seeds are very difficult to germinate. They are best started with stratification, that's up to three months in a fridge before sowing. Some do germinate if sown straight into soil but the success rate is not good. They will take a minimum of six weeks to show.
