HOW TO PLANT ROSES 
1st. Dig a hole so large the roots won’t 
be cramped. 
2nd. Place plant depth shown. Pill hole 
nearly to top with rich soil. Water thor¬ 
oughly to firmly settle soil. 
3rd. Trim plant to about 7 or 8 inches 
in height as picture shows. 
4th. Cover entire top of the plant with 
a mound of loose soil about 9 inches high. 
5th. In about two weeks pull a little 
of the loose soil away to observe if buds 
are bursting open. If buds are opening, 
carefully pull away the mound of loose 
soil. If buds are still dormant leave the 
mound of soil until buds are observed to 
burst open, then remove mound. 
WINTER COVERING—Cover for winter 
this same way and over the mound place 
about a foot of marsh hay, then a layer 
of building paper.
