Prepare a small garden bed in an area that receives at least five hours of sun. Make sure you have good drainage. Dig a hole, fill with water, and make sure it drains out within a half -hour. Your new roses will probably arrive in plastic containers. Water as soon as they are received. Place the plants in a hole four in ches wide and six inches deep into which you have sprinkled bone meal and fertilizer. The rose should be V* to Vi inch deeper than the soil level of the root ball. Water thoroughly. Never allow roses to dry out. Water wisely: soak the area to a depth of eight inches instead of sprinkling now and then ? a most unwise procedure. Fertilize minis with half as much fertilizer twice as often. As for diseases, prevention is easier than curing. Get in the habit of spraying or dusting every week to ten days. Ortho makes a control which protects roses from rose diseases blackspore powdery mildew, and rust. It is officially endorsed by the American Rose Society, the oldest horticultural society in the world. That's good enough for me. Established plants should be heavily pruned in the spring and mounded with soil by late November for winter protection. Miniatures are excellent in formal garden beds where a regular rose would provide too much bulk. For beyond the WEEDS l>\ Jean Winslo* instance, in a half-shaped area measuring approximately four feet by five, I planted two 'Summer Butters,' two 'Orange Cascade' and a 'Starina.' Miniatures may be grown in containers such as hanging baskets and window boxes. If plants are grown indoors, keep in a sunny spot on a tray of wet pebbles or sand. Water every two to three days and fertilize monthly. (Yellow leaves indicate dryness.) Put the plant in the fridge during June. VACATION NOTICE!
