PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS 
Roses can be planted in the early spring or in the fall before the ground 
freezes. Roses are heavy feeders and the beds should be well prepared, 
spading it very deep and manuring heavily with well-rotted manure. 
The beds should be well drained. Plants should be set i 8 inches to 2 feet 
apart and the collar or place where it is grafted should be i inch below the 
surface. When setting, spread the roots over as large an area as possible 
and work the soil amongst them. Then tread the soil down firmly and 
water thoroughly. Keep them well watered until well established. A 
top dressing with ground bone early in the spring and again about July ist 
is very beneficial. A summer mulch of peat moss will keep the bed from 
drying out quickly. New plants should be cut back to within six inches 
of the ground. Old plants should be pruned in April, cutting them back 
one half to two thirds of the previous season’s growth. 
For winter protection, hill the earth up around the plants 8 or 10 inches 
deep and when this is frozen cover the bed with strawy manure or 
leaves.
