For Colorful Blooms This Summer 
E offer only the two highest grades of roses, because those 
“(Q) that have made greatest growth are naturally the most 

vigorous. It is also our policy to have for sale only those 
varieties which we know to be hardy in this climate. 
; Our roses are sent to us direct from the West Coast’s 
leading rose grower. Properly dug, handled, and shipped in temper- 
ature conditioned cars, they arrive here fresh and full of life—ready 
to resume growth and produce blooms. 
Rose -Planting and Care: Dormant roses should be planted in the 
spring. We keep them in our cool, moist storage cellar so that they 
are in good condition for planting during a longer period of time. 
Roses should be planted 16 inches apart each way. <A bed for 12 
roses will be three rows, four in a row. This requires a bed 42 
inches wide and 72 inches long. Twenty-five roses will require a 
bed 42 inches wide and 144 inches or 12 feet long. 
Roses like well-drained, rich soil, and need plenty of food to pro- 
duce flowers. Plant your roses about one inch deeper than they were 
in the nursery. The soil should be enriched with fertilizer during 
the spring and summer to secure an abundance of blooms. 
In Colorado and nearby states, bush roses need winter protection 
so we suggest that you mound up about 6 inches of soil around each 
plant and cover with leaves or straw in the fall.
