Roses, 2 years, strong: Each, 25 cents; per dozen, $ Cultural Directions.—In selecting a spot for a rosebed, do not choose one where the bushes will be shaded by trees or buildings. _ Sunlight is the very Life of the rose. Roses are very partial to a clay loam soil, but will do well in any ordinary soil if well enriched with well-rotted barnyard manure. In preparing the bed, dig it up thoroughly to the depth of twelve or fifteen inches, as rose roots penetrate deep when they have a chance. In forming the beds, do not elevate them above the level of the ground surrounding, as they will suffer less from drought. After the plants have been set out, keep the soil loose to the depth of an inch or two by frequent stirrings. An occasional soaking with weak manure water is a great help to them, HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES. Each, 25 cents.
