@Aashna I think your double bloom desert roses are doing just fine. I don't think you really have to worry about it. You could do more damage with rot if you try to cut the tips during rainy season. Wait until your plant is more established and has grown. I did more damage checking my plants instead of just leaving them alone.
Good luck on your cuttings. I have no luck with it. I tried making them callous. Tried sand and perlite but still no luck. I will wait till next spring to see if I will have better luck. For now, my new motto is to just leave them alone (suckers and all) and let them grow.
