Roses and Their Culture

We have made tliis branch of our business one of tlie most important, and are giving each year more time and study to tliis particular line. Already we are growing many tliousand roses, and we note the difference in results obtained from the northern grown roses as compared with southern and foreign products.

HOW TO GROW ROSES

Select a sunny location in the open, south.ern exposure pre- ferred, sheltered, if possible, from north winds.

Prepare beds b}^ using good soil and cow or well rotted horse manure. Old sod well cut is also beneficial. Beds should be at least two feet in deptli. For convenience of customers we offer cow manure put up in bags. See inside last page of this cata- logue.

PLANTING

Budded Roses have much stronger roots, and show by an abrupt offset where the bud was inserted and the stock cut off. When transplanted, this junction must be set 3 or 4 inches below the surface of the ground. This favors the formation of new roots from the budded or top portion and greatly lessens the tendency of the roots to send up suckers, which must never be permitted to grow. The roots must not be exposed to frost nor allowed to become dry. The soil should be firmly compressed about the roots, and most of the top should be cut away before planting. If the soil and weather be dr3^, a good soaking of water ma}^ be applied, and then shade the ground and plants with mulching. If shaded by paper or other devices from dry- ing winds until they commence growing, their success will be assured. The season for transplanting hardy Roses is April, May, October and November.

Pruning. This should be regulated by the habit of growth, the weak shoots cut in closely, the strong left longer. Moss Roses and Austrian Yellow Roses need tlie least pruning. Hy- brid Perpetuals, grown to produce flowers for exhibition, require close pruning before the middle of April, the weak shoots being cut close back, and the strong ones to 5 or 6 eyes. If less is cut away, the number of blooms will be larger, but the size of the flowers will be smaller. Climbing Roses should have their old shoots and such as are weak entire!}^ cut away, while several vigorous branches may be left their entire length.

Watering. In dry weather water is of mucli benefit, if properly applied. Frequent surface waterings are worse than none, for they seldom fail to produce bad health and disease. When water is given, is should be in sufficient quantity to reacli the lower roots, and to prevent its quickly drying out a mulcli on the surface is very useful.

For winter protection, draw the soil one foot high about the

22

plants, or even more, if convenient. Manure can be put on for additional protection. It need not be rotted; green will answer just as well, and can be covered under in the spring.

INSECTS

A weeffly application of Bordeaux-Arsenate of Lead Mix- ture, at the rate of eight ounces to five gallons of water, applied with sprayer, under side of foliage, during growing season will keep roses free from almost all insect pests and fungous dis- eases. A mulching of two inches of tobacco stems covering ground is very beneficial.

A liberal use of cold water, sprayed with force from the hose nozzle on the underside of the leaves, will keep the plants free from green fly and other insects.

Hellebore, Powdered White. For the destruction of slugs, worms, caterpillars, etc. Less poisonous than Paris Green and London Purple, and safer to use. Use as a powder or dissolve one ounce in three gallons of water.

SELECTION OF HARDY VARIETIES

Our Select List of Roses is the result of long-continued study and trial. It comprises the very best varieties which have been collected. These are hardy, strong plants, grown outdoors, and have bloomed in the nursery rows. They are, therefore, not to be compared with the cheap Roses, or those which are so freely advertised and sent out by mail, which, being grown in the green- house, seldom stand the shock of removal or give the purchaser much pleasure.

POT GROWN

While we use every modern method possible to keep our dormant roses fresh for planting out, yet as the season ad- vances the plants are certain to start or become dried to some extent. We, therefore, have established in pots plants of the same size as the dormant ones, and of the leading sorts, which may be planted as late as July and blossom the first season. By planting Pot Grown roses you will be assured that all will grow.

Hints for Proper Planting and After Cultivation

Most of the nursery stock, that fails to grow, is not properly planted or cared for after planting. Transplanting is a com- paratively easy operation and should be successful in nearly all cases, but care must be given the plant to insure its growth. Water should be used once or twice a week in liberal quantities and frequent loosening of the soil about the plant is essential. Plants received without soil on the roots should have their top trimmed back to ^ of the new wood.

Plant only in good soil. Dig holes deep and wide enough to contain the roots without cramping. Pack the earth firmly about the roots but do not fill the hole quite full, leaving a basin to hold water. Allow no manure or fertilizer to touch the roots.

If these simple directions are followed, results will be sat- isfactory in practically all cases.
