Suggestions for Spring Planting of Roses 
The soil should be thoroughly cultivated and a liberal supply of 
rotted manure added. In planting, dig a hole sufficiently large to 
accommodate the roots when spread out on the bottom of the hole. 
In filling in the soil, shake the plant lightly in order that the soil 
may mix between the roots. Fill in the soil and firm it in order that 
the plant may be solid. Be sure to see that the lower parts of the 
lower branches are below the surface of the soil. Do not plant in a 
mound, the surface should be level. Cut back the branches to within 
4 to 6 inches of the surface of the ground. With this treatment the 
best results may be obtained.
