HINTS... 
ON GROWING ROSES 
You can enjoy success with roses if you 
follow a few simple rules. Any good, well- 
drained\soil will do. While roses need lots 
of water, they must have good drainage, 
for water must not stand around the roots. 
They will not get too much water if they 
have good drainage. A location that as- 
sures them of at least half a day of sun- 
shine is necessary. They will not thrive 
in heavy shade. 
Planting 
Roses should be planted so that the bud is just 
above ground. Do not cover bud. Do not plant 
too shallow or too deep. Dig hole large enough 
so all roots can be spread in a natural position. 
Do not crowd roots. Prune off any dz2ad or in- 
jured roots and branches. If you use manure in 
the hole, be sure it is covered with a least six 
inches of dirt so that roots will not come in 
direct contact with it as manure will burn the 
roots. 
Pruning 
Prune new roses back so that not more than 
6 to 8 inches of bush remain. The new growth 
is the blooming wood, and you want to en- 
courage all the new growth you can get. When 
cutting blooms, cut to an OUTSIDE BUD so 
that new growth will head out rather than in 
towards the center of the plant. Keep the center 
open for plenty of air and sunshine. After 
roses are established, cut them back to about 
12 inches each winter or early spring before 
new growth starts. 
And don’t forget that a regular program of 
spraying will keep your rose bushes healthy 
and vigorous during the growing season.
