Consider these simple instructions and you will 
have little difficulty in growing beautiful Roses. 
Sunny location so that it gets sunshine at least 
part of the day. The soil should be clean and mel¬ 
low with fertilizer well worked in, rotted manure 
being best. The plants should be unpacked as soon 
as they are received, and planted. If you are unable 
to plant immediately upon receiving them, they 
should be heeled in, (buried) in moist dirt until 
you are ready to plant. Never allow to stand and 
dry out. In planting, set the plants so that the 
bud, or joint, above the roots is about one inch 
below the surface of the ground. The holes should 
be dug large enough so that the roots may be 
spread out naturally. Make sure that all the fibrous roots are firmly 
packed by shifting and tamping. Be sure to thoroughly soak the 
fresh planting, and never allow it to dry out or the soil to cake. 
After planting and wetting, mound up the soil four or five inches 
high around each plant. Cut off all the branches about an inch 
above the mound, leaving it this way for ten days or two weeks or 
until the buds start to show. The soil can then be leveled off. Roses 
that are handled in this manner rarely fail to grow. If Roses are 
planted with the tops left exposed to the drying winds they will 
shrivel and die before they start to grow. Allow 1 8 to 24 inches of 
space between plants. 
Roses like a lot of moisture but will not stand water standing 
around the roots, so make sure that drainage is provided beneath 
the bed.

For insect attacks by aphis (green lice) etc. use any of the good 
standard sprays applied according to directions on the package. 
Rugosa Roses are used the same way as shrubs. 
Polyantha Roses (Baby Ramblers) are used in massed beds or 
borders. They bloom all summer.
