HOW TO PLANT ROSES 
1st. Dig a hole so large the roots won't be 
cramped. 
2nd. Place plant depth shown. Fill hole nearly 
to top with rich soil. Water thoroughly 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.
