ROSE MANUAL 15c 
This little booklet is of especially value to Rose lovers who are planning Rose beds and 
gardens. It gives complete instructions as to trimming, spraying, cultivation, fertilizing, etc., 
from year to year. In other words, it contains complete details on Rose culture which we do 
not have space for in our catalog. If you desire this helpful guide, send 15c to cover cost

around the plant, then cover the exposed tops of 
the plants with leaves, straw or other mulching. 
Each spring as the Hybrid Teas are uncovered, 
the plants should be trimmed back quite heavily 
to encourage more blooms. Rugosa Roses will re- 
quire little annual pruning except to keep them 
to the size desired. Climbing Roses, when once 
established, should have no trimming whatever 
in early spring except to prune out any dead 
wood. Any extensive trimming to Climbers should 
be done immediately following the blooming period.
