Bring Your Garden Up-to-Date With These New Roses 

The Roses we are offering are all strong, 2-year, field-grown 
plants that were dug last fall and potted into 6-inch pots, then 
stored in cold frames without any artificial heat. During the 
latter part of March these potted plants are moved to beds in 
the open air where they receive no further protection. Under this 
treatment they develop in a natural way and are not only supe- 
rior to stock which has been developed into full growth under 
glass, but also better for spring planting than plants which have 
been carried in cellars, in cold storage, or kept dormant in any 
other way until planting time in late April or May. Roses thrive 
best in an airy position where they can have light shade during 
part of the day, but not near enough to trees and shrubs whose 
roots would rob them of food and moisture. Roses are gross 
feeders and consequently require a rich soil. Select a well 
drained position where the soil is good and dig in a liberal 
amount of well-decomposed manure, thoroughly mixing it with 
the soil. For best results, the beds should not be too wide; plant 
the Hybrid Teas 15 to 18 inches apart and the stronger grow- 
ing Hybrid Perpetuals 2 feet apart, planting all about 8 to 10 
inches from the edge of the beds. Budded Roses should be 
planted so that the bud is not over 2 inches below the surface 
of the ground; firm the soil well around the roots and give a 
thorough watering. Throughout the summer the surface of the 
bed should be cultivated.
