Rose Culture 
Roses delight in a warm location ’^ere 
they will receive plenty of sunshine. They 
are at their best when not competing wuh 
larger plants for their moisture and light. 
The Rugosa Hybrids, however, seem to do 
well under the ordinary competition ot 
other plants in the shrub border. 
Any effort expended in making the soil 
rich will be generously rewarded with in¬ 
crease in both size and number of blooms. 
Roses, especially budded varieties, should 
be planted considerably deeper than they 
grew formerly. ^ i 
At planting they should be pruned back 
to two or three stems with only four or 
five buds on each. The entire top should 
then be mounded up with dirt which 
should be left there until the buds start 
to sprout. A mulch of well rotted rnanure 
or Dcat on top of tho soil will provo highly 
beneficial to the plants through the grow¬ 
ing season. 
In subsequent years the roses, excep¬ 
ting the climbers and the Rugosa Hybnds 
should be pruned back heavily each spring, 
cutting out any short or spindly growth, or 
wood which shows winter injury, leaving 
each main shoot four to six inches long. 
Any shoots which come up from below the 
bud or graft should be cut away as fast 
as they appear. , , i. ^ 
Climbing roses should not be pruned 
back severely. The Rugosas are not head¬ 
ed back as heavily as other bush roses al¬ 
though they should receive enough cut¬ 
ting each year to stimulate vigorous new 
shoots on which their flowers are borne. 
In late fall those bush roses which re- 
Quire protection should have the ground 
heaped up around the base of the plarRs 
10 to 12 inches high. After freezing the 
tops are usually tied up with hay or straw 
and around this is placed a wrapping of 
weather resisting paper. To protect the 
climbers they should be laid flat on the 
ground and covered in a similar manner 
to the bush roses.

Brownell Sub-Zero Hybrid 
Tea and Climbing Roses 
We are glad to announce that this year we 
are distributors in the Northwest for the fam¬ 
ous new Brownell Sub-Zero Hybrid Roses. As 
a result of 25 years of expert hybridizing and 
plant breeding the Brownells of Rhode Island 
have developed two new races of hardy roses— 
the Sub-Zero Hybrid Teas and their Hardy 
Climbing Roses. The Brownell’s describe these 
as “a new race from hardier Species that can 
bloom all summer, with the best of fragrant 
flowers, more freely and constantly, of great¬ 
er sturdiness and vigor.” 
‘‘The features of this new Race of Roses are 
that they are easy to grow, bloom several times 
as many flowers, are much more vigorous by 
cumulative growth from year to year, and live 
more than ten times as long as the average hy¬ 
brid tea, even after sub-zero Winters. At 
about 10 below zero the wood will kill back to 
bed level; from the eyes below, due to special 
vigor inherited from hardy Species, they may 
develop by bloom time to flower more freely 
than the present H. T’s. performing much after 
the manner of herbaceous Peonies. Where sub¬ 
zero temperatures do not obtain, certain var¬ 
ieties frequently grow to bush five or more feet 
and produce 100 or more flowers per season.”
