ROSE HINTS 
Roses are usually hungry and thirsty! 
In the early Spring, mulch rose beds with three 
inches of fairly fresh cow manure. Sprinkle a 
half tea cup of a well balanced commercial fer^ 
tiliser around each plant every two months during 
the growing season. 
Keep the ground moist. Water from one to 
three weeks depending on your soil. Water in 
the morning only. 
If you do not use a mulch, cultivate the ground 
lightly after each watering; just enough to break 
the crust. Deep cultivating cuts the feeding 
rootlets. 
Roses should not be allowed to go dormant in 
the summer; keep them growing. It is more harm' 
ful to let them dry up than to keep them growing.
