_ Roses require an especially rich and thoroughly drained 
- location if they are to do well. Work quantities of manure 
. into the soil before planting. 
Prune roses back heavily at the time of planting and 
again each spring. Leave only two or three strong stems 
and cut them back to four or five buds on each stem. 
' Protect your rose plants over winter by mounding dirt 
’ to a depth of a foot over each plant, then covering with a 
loose litter.
