Roses, For Outdoor Planting 
1 he fashion in garden Roses has changed very much within the past two years. With 
the greater knowledge disseminated, Rose buyers have discovered that the hybrid perpetual 
Roses, while they produce a wonderful wealth of flowers in June, are of no use for the rest 
of the year. The demand today is for a garden Rose from which milady can cut what 
flowers she wishes any time from May to November. This is impossible with any other 
type of Rose except Hybrid Tea. 
Realizing this, we have spent considerable time this year investigating the outdoor 
Rose situation, and in the light of that experience have selected the varieties given below as 
being absolutely the best in their colors over a widely divergent section of country. 
I he cultivation of Hybrid Tea Roses is as follows: 
They should be set out in a good, open spot, where the sun will strike them for an 
hour or more during the day. A clay loam is thought to be the ideal soil, though Hybrid 
lea Roses will thrive in a very much lighter soil than some other Roses. Set the plants 
out twelve inches apart when the ground can be readily worked in the Spring, and cut them 
back to about four eyes. As the different crops of flowers develop they should be cut before 
the petals drop, because this enables the plant to break out again and produce continuous 
crops so much desired. With good soil and, as before stated, planting the same a foot 
apart, they will give a good show of flowers throughout the entire Summer. 
Very late in the F all, after the frost has taken all the leaves off the plants, the long 
shoots can be trimmed back and the beds covered with 4 or 5 inches of dry leaves. The 
ideal way is to surround the bed with wire netting and put the leaves inside. This will 
obviate their being blown away. When treated in this manner practically all Hybrid Teas 
will come through the Winter in perfect condition.
