the blade is in the ground about one foot and place 
in it a tomato plant 12 or 14 inches tall. Just let 
the tip stick out. Step on the ground above it so 
it will have firm contact. If frost comes and freezes 
the top rake some of the dirt off from the stem and 
it will leaf out again. The Hybrid Big Tomato was 
reported to have withstood about 2 or 21% degrees

Many of these tearoses are semi-hardy and 
tender in our climate. Planting the graft three 
or four inches deeper generally prevents them 
from freezing too bad. In winter most of them 
freeze close to the ground, but some of them 
freeze below the ground and still come up 
to bloom. 
They require a sunny place and plenty of 
water. If the ground contains manure, watch 
out for white grubworms. 
We recommend peat moss as fertilizer for 
roses. 
Dusting sulphur is safely used for most 
rose bugs and copper sulphate for ground dis- 
ease such as fungus. 
We have many roses that are not listed.
