SMITH Brookdale Nurseries Many books have been writ- ten on the subject of roses but these benefit mostly the profes- sional rose breeder or the ardent rose grower. This article is designed to assist the "'nov- ice' rose grower to choose varieties that are suited to both the climate of the area and to inform him of the proper care and maintenance of the plants. Several classes of roses are available today and each de- serves a word of explanation. Hybrid Tea: The most popular rose with the home gardener be- cause of the quality of bloom and the delightful fragrance which many varieties offer. Grandiflora: A relatively new class in the rose world. These plants are noted for robust growth with large blooms sim- ilar to hybrid teas, but provid- ing blooms for a longer period of time, Floribunda: Meaning "man flowers', this class is rapidly becoming the favorite rose of the home gardener because of the massive blooms these plants provide and the very long blooming period. Climbing Roses: Everyone is} familiar with the glorious pic-| ture of these roses growing upon! the walls of homes or the gar- den trellis. OTHERS LESSER KNOWN | In addition to these well! known classes there are several) relatively unknown classes such| as the "Grootendorst" roses;} Miniature roses; and Tree Roses. oe Hybrid Teas should be main- tained in a separate rose bed, where the true beauty and per- fume can be fully appreciated. There are several thousand var- beginner is often confused by such a choice but the fact re- mains that many of the older varieties are still the best roses; this does not mean that the new introductions of the AARS are inferior. Roses such as "Duet" and "'Christian Dior" are excel- lent. The following are some of the good dependable varieties: Peace: This yellow-pink var- iety is outstanding and a must for any garden. It blooms for a longer period of time than any other Hybrid Tea rose I know. Chrysler Imperial: A dark red rose of great merit. Garden Party: A_ recent AARS introduction which has very large blooms of a soft creamy-pink color. Mojave: A delightful orange bloom of lasting quality. Sutter's Gold: One of the pur- est yellow roses yet to be intro- duced and a plant which holds its bloom for a long period of time. There are many other fine jvarieties which are available jfrom your local nurseryman. MASSIVE COLOR Floribunda Roses have such Geidilocks: A pure yellow flower of semi-miniature size, this plant is noted for the great number of blooms it produces. Many other varieties of Flori- bundas are also available. SPECIAL PLACE Grandiflora Roses deserve a special place in your garden. These plants often grow to great size and can be used as speci- mens any where in the garden. Queen Elizabeth, which pro- duces very large blooms of pure pink, is an outstanding variety. Buccaneer, a bright yellow, and Carousel with glowing red flow- ers, are other highly desirable members of this class. Climbing Roses are very pop- ular as very few garden plants will do the job that these color- ful roses will do. Against a wall the Blaze climber with its bright red blooms, or the Coral Dawn climber with pink-coral blooms will grace your home, depend- ing on the color most suited to your brick or woodwork, Some other varieties, the newer ones,| such as Gladiator and Imperial) Blaze are well worth consider- ing. SOIL PREPARATION To prepare your soil before planting roses (bearing in mind) that your blooms are best if the) soil is rich) dig a hole large enough to accommodate the roots without "cramming" and mix manure or bone meal with good clay loam. Plant the rose each cane, rose bush and your plants should be treated with a good insecticide - fungicide regularly from June through September. This can be done easily and the rewards are great. For winter protection "hill" roses up with Saturdays at the soil level and water the plant well. Backfill the soil gently and pack it well to ex- clude excessive air in the soil. After planting prune heavily to permit the plant to establish itself as quickly as possible. The bushes should be pruned back to about four inches from the rgaft, leaving several buds on Aphids, blackspot, and mildew busnes so that the graft is just man, They can be applied and will keep the soil from washing away during the winter. POINTS TO REMEMBER: carefully. feed your plants. at the time of planting. during the summer. (5) Protect your roses for the winter. Don't deny yourself the pleas- ure of this delightful company in your garden. For more in- formation contact your local On- tario Nurserymen's Association member.
