Planting Instructions 
Select fertile, well drained soil where no roses 
have been grown for two or more years. This should 
be located where the roses will be in full sunlight 
the greater part of the day and far enough distant 
from trees, hedges, shrubbery, or other plants so 
that the roots of these plants will not rob the roses 
cf necessary plant food. Several months before 
planting, about one or two inches of manure should 
be dug into the soil. No other fertilizer should be 
added until August when two pounds of a complete 
fertilizer for each 100 square feet of area should be 
applied. Plants should be set two to three feet apart 
Set the plants so the bud union will be one or two 
jnches above the top of the soil after the bed has 
settled. The plants should be set on a mound in the 
center of the hole so that the roots extend out 
naturally at an angle of 30 to 45 degrees. The soil 
should be packed around the roots with the hands 
until the hole is about two-thirds full. Pour in a 
bucket of water; and after this has disappeared, 
fill the remainder of the hole and mound the soil 
over the plants for eight or ten inches. This mound 
should be removed about February 15 by pulling 
soil away from the bottom of the mounds.
