Catalogue of Reading Nursery, Mass. — J. W. Manning, Proprietor. 13 HYBRID ROSES. Culture. Tin' named Hybrid Koses being valued essentially for their Mowers, require high cultivation to give the finest results, and it may be said that the richer the soil the better flowering effect is attained : the fertilizer must, however, be well worked among the soil and not placed directly to the roots. When to plant. — Spring planting of Hoses should be accomplished as early as possible, that there may be no check to the growth. Fall planting is advisable where the plants are well protected during the winter, anil usually gives the best flowering results the first season. How to plant. — Hoses on their own roots should be planted at the same depth that they came from the soil at the Nursery. Budded plants should be so planted that the bud may be about three inches below the surface when the soil is settled. This prevents the throwing up of suckers from the stock on which the plant is budded, and will enable it to become self-rooted in a short season. Budded plants treated in this manner are as desirable as own root plants, and give better flowering results at first. Pruning. — Established plants should be pruned in March, or early April, and this, when properly done, gives better growth, and, consequently, freer-flowering results. Shortening in should be done to all. and the least vigorous will admit of being pruned in one-third of the previous season's growth, while those of more robust habit require The less proportionate cutting. Keep plants free of all dead wood at all times. Newly planted Roses must be shortened in at the time of their planting. Hybrid Perpetual should he trimmed hack after flowering, t
