ROSES 
Roses thrive best in a medium light soil. Before planting prepare the 
soil by spading thoroughly and working over to a depth of about 18 inches, 
fill in well rotted stable manure while spading and work it carefully into 
the soil. After the plants are set, for best results cut all branches back to 
within 3 to 4 inches of the top of the ground. The new growth coming 
out will make a much nicer head than if the plant were not pruned and the 
bushes will bloom better.
