rock garden.

All of our Roses are grafted plants. In planting set plants so 
that graft is 1 inch below surface. If any growth breaks from below 
the surface cut it off. Pack soil firmly around roots, keep well 
watered until plants are esablished. Well rotted cow manure is an 
ideal fertilizer for Roses and several applications should be raked in 
the soil during the growing season.
