Ours are grown under our own personal supervision, are given plenty of room to branch out into bush form and retain their leaves; they are therefore strong, handsome, stocky plants, full of life and vigor, with an abundance of healthy foliage, and in the best possible condition for transplanting to the garden. We grow them by the hundred thousand, and offer them in different sizes and prices to suit all purchasers. HINTS ON THE CULTURE OF ROSES WHAT VARIETIES TO PLANT—The Ever-blooming or Monthly Roses are the only constant bloomers we have. They begin to bloom early in May, and continue all through the summer and autumn months until stopped by freezing weather. HARDY ROSES—This section includes the Hybrid Perpetuals and Mosses, and while they are not constant bloomers, they make a gorgeous display in May and June. Most of the Hybrid Perpetual class give a second crop and bloom in September and October. PREPARATION OF ROSE BED—Select a sunny spot, prepare your bed by digging to the depth of eighteen inches. Any good garden mould will grow roses. After the plants have been set out, which should be early in the season, keep the soil loose by frequent shallow stirrings, till the middle of June, when they should be mulched by covering the surface of the bed to the depth of an inch or so with old manure to prevent evaporation. FERTILIZERS—Fine, well-decomposed cow manure is the best for general
