Hybrid Tea Roses 
This is the most popular class of garden Roses. They are the 
offspring of the Hybrid Perpetual and Tea Roses which have 
been developed toward hardiness as much as possible. The flowers 
are similar to those you buy from the greenhouse. They bloom 
from about the middle of June to the last of July; then they rest 
a bit, save for a few blossoms, until the end of August, starting 
once more and blooming until frost. Protect during the winter 
by mounding up 1 foot high; after freezing, mulch with strawy 
manure or leaves to keep frozen. Enrich with bonemeal and hoe 
thoroughly. 
Strong, vigorous plants in a large pot with specially prepared soil,
