It is almost impossible to propagate some varie¬ 
ties of Roses upon their own roots, and unless these 
are grown upon Manetti their cultivation would 
have to be discontinued. Others produce finer flow¬ 
ers 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 and the plants are thus en¬ 
abled to withstand extreme heat and droughts, 
and still produce flowers. 
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 carefully 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 out¬ 
grow 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.
