For best results you should have a well- 
made Rose bed with soil at least 2 feet deep. 
These Roses are all budded or grafted; there¬ 
fore, when planted, the place where the graft 
is joined to the Wild Rose should be at least 
2 inches below the level of the soil. For 
winter, hill soil about the stems to a height 
of 6 or 8 inches, just before frost, and then 
cover the entire bed with leaves or straw. 
Do not remove covering till all danger of frost 
is past in the spring.
