It is almost impossible to propagate some varieties of Roses upon their own roots, and unless these arc grown upon Manetti 
their cultivation would have to be discontinued. Others produce finer flowers when budded or grafted upon the Manetti stock. 
They are especially desirable for Florida and warm climates, as their roots penetrate the soil to a great depth. 
Budded Roses should be planted sufficiently deep so that the junction of the bud with the stock is from 2 to 3 inches below 
the surface of the earth. Do not overlook this. 
The budded Roses should be carefujly watched, and all suckers or shoots which grow out from below the place where the 
bud is inserted must be removed. If this is neglected, the stock will outgrow the bud and failure will surely follow. 
The foliage of the Manetti is composed of from seven to nine leaflets, whereas Tea, Hybrid and Bourbon Roses usually have 
but five. *
