SNOWBIRD 
Not a floribunda, but our best cluster-flowered white rose. Low-growing, 
compact plants and the continuous blooming pure white roses serve the 
same purpose as floribundas in the garden.

How to Plant Roses 
PLANTING. Unwrap the roses soon as received. If the roots 
are dry, plunge entire plant in a bucket of water overnight. If 
moist, dampen packing material and carefully rewrap. Keep 
moist and cool until planting time. While digging holes to re- 
ceive the roses, keep them in a bucket of water (Fig. 1). Dig 
spacious holes, mounding soil in center. Place the roots over 
the mound and set the bud union at ground level (Fig. 1), and 
fill in with top-soil (Fig. 2). Soak with a slow stream of water 
and fill in with additional soil as required. Construct a ridge 
around the plants for future irrigation. 
PRUNING. Figures 1 & 2 show a rose correctly pruned at time 
of planting. Note that cuts are made just above an outside bud. 
Figure 3 shows a rose after one season’s growth. Shaded portions 
indicate parts of plants to be removed. Keep the plants open in 
the center. Don’t prune too early; January is a good time.
