YELLOW BANKSIA

Here is the charming old yellow climber that is so much at home in the South. In fact, it has been cultivated ever since the late eighteenth century. It produces great masses of small, double, yellow bloom very early in the season. The plant is very easy to grow and is extremely long lived all through the South. $2.00 each; 3 for $5.00.

Simple Hints for Growing Prize-Winning Roses

We advise fall planting when and where possible. You should be guided by climatic conditions in your section and the experience of successful local gardeners. We usually begin shipping about October 1 and continue until April 1, but find late spring plantings do not survive the first summer as well as earlier plantings.

Any good soil in a sunny location, and away from trees and shrub- bery, is right for Roses. The soil should be spaded deep—about 18 inches. Any manure used should be mixed with soil and placed within the first 9 inches at the bottom of the bed. Don’t let the roots touch the manure. Fill top of bed with top soil.

Make the holes deep and large enough to receive the roots with- out bending. Place the plant with roots spread out, and slightly deeper than the plant grew in the nursery. Work soil in around the roots until hole is three-fourths full. Pack well and water thoroughly. When water settles, finish filling hole with loose top soil; this acts asa mulch. If fertilizer is required on the surface, spread it care- fully and work into the top soil.

Should watering be required in dry weather, be sure to soak the soil thoroughly. A light sprinkling is almost useless. Good cul-

Rosemont's Liberal Guarantee

We ship only best-grade, 2-yr. plants at prices as reasonable as possible under present costs of production. Rosemont Roses have bloomed profusely one year before being shipped to you; with proper care they will begin blooming early the first summer.

WE prepay shipping charges on orders amounting to $4.00 or more

We guarantee to deliver our Roses to you in first-class growing condition, and to furnish them true to label. Should you receive a Rose plant from us in an unsatisfactory

tivation and loose top soil or a mulch of peat moss are surely as important as watering.

Foliage diseases may be controlled with Tri-ogen or its equiva- Ient. Good sprays may be bought from your local merchant with directions on the containers.

Pruning: Prune Hybrid Tea and Hybrid Perpetual bush Roses by removing misplaced canes and old and diseased wood at the base; shorten remaining canes to desired height. To keep Tea and Polyantha bush Roses in shape, remove dead wood. Prune Hybrid Tea Climbers and Tea Climbers to remove old or diseased wood, and to keep in bounds. Prune Shrub Roses and Climbers which bloom only in the spring by removing old, weakened canes at the base, leaving the new thrifty canes for next year’s bloom. (Example, Excelsa and Banksia.) All Rose pruning should be done in the spring when buds begin to swell (about February 15 here) except Climbers and Shrub Roses that bloom only in the spring; these should be pruned in early summer, soon after they have finished blooming.
