After a slow start, roses are now beginning to produce blooms. If you want to
enjoy flowers into tate fall, pick off all fading blooms to prevent seed produc-

above a bud or branch, with the cut angled downward, away from the bud
Adding a little extra rose fertilizer every 3 or 4 weeks will maintain vigorous
plants Bill Jones
