FALL PLANTING 



We recommend fall planting of Roses: in late October 

 for northern states, from November until the ground freezes, 

 farther south. In fall, the earth is mellow and right for plant- 

 ing. Put a mound of soil up around the stems after planting 

 and the Roses will be ready to grow when spring comes. 



MAIL-ORDER shipments will be made at proper time for 

 planting in your locality. Dormant Roses can be planted until 

 just before the ground freezes for the winter. 



NOTE: Rose plants may be picked up at the nursery AFTER 

 NOVEMBER 1, but not before that date.
