Everblooming Hybrid TEA ROSES 
How to Plant—Dig a hole large enough to spread the roots without crowding and deep 
enough to cover a little deeper than plants were in the nursery. Roses must be planted so the 
scar or swelling left by bud or graft is beneath the surface. 
In filling with soil, shake plant 
lightly, so soil gets all around the roots, then fill the hole completely with firm soil so plant is 
set solid. Soak well with water. Pruning may be done before new leaf growth starts in spring.
