Planting and Care of Roses 
Roses should be planted in good, rich soil. Dig the hole 
deep enough so that it can be set in the ground about 2 inches 
below where it was budded. That will prevent suckers from 
growing up from the natural root. Do not trim the root oft too 
severely, but cut the tops off about 8 inches above the top of 
the ground. Pack good rich soil thoroughly around the root9, 
being careful not to let any compost come in contact with the roots. Keep the top of the earth thoroughly worked around the 
bushes the entire season. Each following Spring they should be pruned 10 to 12 inches. Always use pruning shears, as a knife 
has a tendency of loosening them from the earth. 
To immunize Healthy Roses spray with NICOTINE PYROX, dust with GRAPE DUST, Kills Mildew.
