UNPACKING 
Soak Roots for Several Hours in a Bucket of Water 
Before Planting. 
TIME TO PLANT —Roses should be set out when 
the plants are dormant or when the leaves begin to 
fall. Planting season begins about November 1st. 
HOW TO PLANT —The Rose delights in an open, 
airy situation ; all types are partial to clay loam, but 
will succeed in any ordinary soil if enriched. Dig up 
the soil thoroughly to a depth of 12 to 15 inches. 
When the bush is planted press the soil firmly over 
the roots. Make a basin around the plant, and water 
freely to exclude air, and settle the earth. 
PRUNING (Bush roses) —This operation is best 
performed during the dormant season. Most Roses 
do better if moderately pruned. We usually remove 
from one-third to two-thirds of the past year’s 
growth, and all weak or decayed wood should be en¬ 
tirely cut out. As a rule, the more vigorous the vari¬ 
ety the less it should be pruned. It is always the new 
growth which gives the most flowers.
