Roses 
This family of shrubs is very large. It includes 
not only the everblooming hybrid teas, but also 
hardy vigorous shrub species that require almost 
no care at all. The care of garden roses in gener- 
al is to keep the hybrid teas low-pruned, extra 
well fed with manure, in clean cultivated beds, 
spaced about 18 inches apart. Climbers require 
no such attention, but are improved by extra feed- 
ing certainly. Floribundas and polyanthas also 
need little care to live and bloom, but if weeded 
and fed are much handsomer. 
Pruning is largely a matter of taste. It may be 
done at any time and in any manner that pleases 
you. Generally speaking, a little shade makes 
better blooms than full summer sun.
