Raven Rock Nursery 
ROSES 
Roses 
The loveliest of all flowers is the Rose and the sweetest of all perfumes is 
its fragrance. Almost every home has room for at least a few. To achieve 
best results, a good loamy soil, well drained and exposed to full sunshine 
should be selected. Prepare the soil by spading deeply and mixing with it 
a liberal quantity of well rotted cow manure or a lesser quantity of com¬ 
mercial fertilizer. 
The Hybrid Tea or Everblooming Roses have a continual blooming from 
June to late Fall, and are perfectly hardy if given a slight protection. Our 
Roses are all strong, 2 year old, budded, field grown plants which we have 
potted. These plants may be set out any time until the latter part of June 
and can be relied upon to bloom throughout the first season.
