For best results you should have a well- 

 made Rose bed with soil at least 2 feet deep. 

 These Roses are all budded or grafted; there- 

 fore, when planted, the place where the graft 

 is joined to the Wild Rose should be at least 

 2 inches below the level of the soil. For 

 winter, hill soil about the stems to a height 

 of 6 or 8 inches, just before frost, and then 

 cover the entire bed with leaves or straw. 

 Do not remove covering till all danger of frost 

 is past in the spring.
