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
J. W. ADAMS NURSERY COMPANY
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.
