Planting Instructions 
Plant in a large hole to give the roots plenty of room. Use good top soil to fill 
in around the roots. Plant a rose so deep that the bud (root and top joint just above 
the root) stands Vz to 1-inch below soil surface. Apply plenty of water to settle the 
soil. Cut the canes and branches back to 8 or 10 inches from the ground, severe 
pruning is a great help to roses. Bank up soil or sand 6 inches high to keep the 
canes moist and cool for the first two weeks. After that time new sprouts appearing 
are signs that the rose is started and well on its way to give you its first crop of 
blossoms. For winer protection follow the same method, cutting the roses back late in 
the fall and banking them ud.
