ROSES 
I N choosing varieties of Roses the beginner should be advised that the Hybrid 
Roses, though more beautiful in form and color and blooming over a longer 
period, are not quite so hardy as the other Roses in the list and require more 
careful planting, cultivation, and protection. 
Most Hybrid Roses are budded and should be planted deep enough so that the 
point of union is one inch below the surface of the ground. When planted they 
should have soil mounded up around them six inches high until they start, to prevent 
the canes from drying. After settled cold weather (about Thanksgiving) Roses 
should be protected by hilling dirt up ten inches high around the plant and then 
covering with leaves, straw, manure, or evergreen boughs.
