f*si05(£4 for Fall Planting 
Culture. Roses thrive in any good garden soil which is not too 
sandy. Dig the bed as deeply as possible (at least 18 inches), turning the 
soil over thoroughly and working in some well-rotted manure and bone- 
meal. Place the plants in pails of water until the holes are dug and ready 
to receive each plant. Dig holes deep and large enough to allow the 
roots to spread out and down. Set the plant into the hole so that the 
graft (swollen part) is 1 to 2 inches below the surface of the soil. Fill 
in a little at a time, tramping the soil tightly until the hole is nearly filled. 
Then pour in several quarts of water; after this soaks in, hill up the earth 
around the stems to a height of 8 inches. After the ground is frozen 
hard, mulch the bed with salt meadow hay. 
For summer care, see our Spring Catalogue. 
Shipments made from early October until the ground freezes.
