WEST NEWBURY, MASS. 35 
Roses 
In our northern climate, roses must be selected with a 
thought for hardiness and vigor as well as the bright color 
effects desired in the garden. Our list covers a wide range of 
color and we have found these to be vigorous. In this latitude 
the plants should be protected for the winter by heaping earth 
around them and then covering with a mulch so that they 
are covered six inches deep. In the spring prune back to live 
wood. 
All our Roses are potted in generous-sized containers. In 
planting, slit the paper pot leaving the earth intact and plant 
about three inches deeper. They wil! then be well established 
to grow rapidly for bloom in June and throughout the summer. 
Our potted Roses will not be ready for planting in your garden 
before May 10th when they will be in leaf and bud. We would 
suggest, however, that you place your order early so that we 
may reserve for you the kinds you would like, as sometimes by 
May l0th some varieties are all sold out. 
As roses need more aftercare than flowering shrubs, we 
cannot be responsible for their growth after they leave the 
nursery and any complaints must be made within ten days 
after heing received. 
We may be out of certain kinds and will substitute varieties 
similar in color unless otherwise directed. Please advise us if 
you do not wish substitutes. 
We do not recommend the fall planting of roses for this 
latitude.
