MALMO Ficld Grown ROSES 
Rose Culture in the Puget 
Sound Region 
Upon receipt of roses from our nursery: If 
unable to plant at once, unpack and “heel in’”’ 
in a shady place, covering the stems half way 
up with soil and soak thoroughly. Keep moist 
until planted. 
PLANTING ROSES 
In our superb climate, roses, provided they 
are well planted, attain a perfection seldom 
equaled anywhere. They will grow in any 
good soil. Excellent results will be obtained if 
the following directions are complied with: 
Prepare ground thoroughly, breaking sub-soil 
and mixing in well rotted manure, Malmo Or- 
ganic Fertilizer or Malmo High Grade Raw 
Bone Meal. Dig holes to a depth of 2 feet, and 
large enough to accommodate roots when fully 
spread out and bury crown (lowest branch at 
graft) about 2 inches below surface of soil. If 
soil is sandy or light, mix in a heavy soil for 
best results, as roses prefer even heavy clay. 
Plant deep enough to allow a shallow depres- 
sion about the plant to hold water; fill in dirt 
slowly, shaking plants slightly. Fill soil well 
about the plant, and water thoroughly. Trim 
roses back to about 8 inches before planting. 
CULTURE AFTER PLANTING 
Water often and abundantly during growing 
season; never sprinkle foliage during the heat 
of the day or at night, which encourages mil- 
dew. Cultivate often, keeping the soil well 
loosened at all times. In early spring, before 
growth starts, again prune back well and take 
out all crowding branches and old and dead 
wood. Mix about a handful of Malmo Organic 
Fertilizer or Malmo High Grade Raw Bone Meal 
in the soil about the roots of every rose. Spray 
with a strong dormant spray in early spring 
just after pruning, and your rose plants will 
remain so much cleaner during the growing 
season. 
Add to the beauty of your rose garden by 
planting blue and purple violas between the 
rose plants to provide a charming color con- 
trast from spring until frost. 
This list includes the best of this season's 
newer roses of proven merit, as well as the 
improved standard rose varieties. All are qual- 
ity bushes, carefully selected, all bloomed 
heavily last season. We believe this to be the 
most complete stock of heavy, Number 1 roses 
available in the Northwest, and we invite in- 
spection at our two drive-in locations. Our Rose 
Department is handled by competent men who 
know roses and have a life-long experience 
with them. At all times we are ready to advise 
which varieties to plant adaptable to differ-
