HOW TO GROW ROSES 
Everblooming bush Roses are not hard to grow, if 
you will follow these simple instructions. Plants should 
be taken out of the package as soon as they arrive. 
Start to plant as follows. A sunny location, where the‘ 
sun shines at least half of the day is the best. The soil 
should be prepared ahead, and mellow, with some well- 
rotted manure worked in or some commercial fertilizer. 
VIGORO used according to directions on the package 
will do. Never allow the plants to lay around in the 
wind and sun to dry out. If unable to plant for a day 
or two, bury them—roots tops and all—4 inches deep. 
Dig holes large enough to allow the roots to be spread 
out in all directions. Do not wind the roots around in 
the hole. Plant so the joint will be 1 inch below the 
soil after you have leveled the ground off. Next mount 
soil around the plant 5 inches high. Now trim off all 
of the plant 1 inch above this mcund. Leave this mound 
around the plant for 10 days, then gradually level it, 
and start cultivation. Plants mounded in this manner 
will not become dry before they have a chance to start 
growing. Plants should be set 20 inches apart each way. 
Some clay added to the soil is very good where your 
soil is a little sandy. Two applications of VIGORO 
through the growing season, and watered in will keep 
them blooming all summer and fall. Never sprinkle 
the tops of the Rose 
plants. Rather let the . 
hose lay on the ground Everblooming 
under the plants and Bush Rose 
soak in. Cut off all Collection 
blooms after they are Caledania 
through blooming. Cut Luxemburg $5.95
