HENDERSON’S FAMOUS ROSES 
FOR AUTUMN PLANTING 
Field Grown Two-Year-Old Dormant Plants 
We start digging and shipping roses about October 20th. 
They are packed in damp sphagnum moss, and as the roots 
are not exposed to the air, the plants reach our customers 
fresh and full of vitality. 
Roses can be planted in the fall 
as long as the ground is free from 
frost. Many rosarians prefer fall 
planting because the plants then 
receive the advantage of an early 
start in spring. These roses are 
budded low, and when planting 
the bud or union should be placed 
just below the surface of the soil. 
Be careful to spread the roots _ 
out well.
