The \ a Site should be sunny and protected from strong winds. Areas close to trees or hedges should be avoided so that roots do not encroach on the rose beds and rob the soil of its moisture. Light shade may prevent the blooms from fading rapidly. Beds wide enough to contain two or three rows of bushes, planted alternately, are generally most convenient. Soil: Roses thrive best in fairly rich clay loam, but it must be well drained. Remember that the planting is of a more or less permanent nature. The soil should be dug deeply because roses have long deep roots. For horticultural convenience, roses have been divided into a number of classes such as Hybrid Tea (H.T.), Hybrid Perpetual (P.T.), Floribunda, Grandiflora and Climbers. The Hybrid Tea is the most popular of all the rose types grown in gardens large or small. It provides bloom throughout the season, and depending on the variety, lends itself to both cut flowers and garden decoration. Roses of the Hybrid Tea type require pruning each spring before the bushes leaf out. This is most important, and should be done very carefully. For winter protection, such material as straw, strawy manure or leaves are adequate. Always buy from reliable nurseries; they will guarantee their products.
