August jUni Ma4wa
Watering during this period of
dryness and heat is' naturally one
of the most important phases of
rose -culture. Evert though such
hardy plants as Fashion Mission
Bellsi Capistrano land ? Sutter's
Gold all-American winners for
1950,; will survive long periods of
drought, they cannot be expected
to make rapid progress and to pro
duce 1 the results they should in
time i for the autumn rose shows
without sufficient Water.,
' The cardinal point to remember
about water is that, to be effect
ive, it must soak the soil thor
oughly to a depth of at "least 10
inches, and the foliage should be
kept dry if watering is done at
night. If watering is done early
in the morning, the need of keep
ing foliage dry, unless just dusted
or sprayed, is not so important A
garden hose with the nozzle remo
ved, will feed water into the base
of the plant without wetting the
leaves, however. To cover more
area, set the mouth of the hose on
a board and let the water run off
over its surface. This will spread
hth flow and keep' the soil from
washing away at the base of the
plant.
Light cultivation mar be neces
sary where no mulch is used to
prevent the caking of surface soil
and reduce weeds, but since a
healthy rose plant produces many
small roots near the surface, deep
cultivation should be avoided to
prevent damage to the n ot system.
Mulching the rose bed with organ
ic matreials such as peat moss,
compost, ground corn cobs, or
well-rotted manure will help to
retain water and to keep weeds at
a minimum. It is better for the
plant, also, than stirring the soil.
Mulching material should be
shredded.
A few rose lovers tend to over
feed their plants, but a more com
mon error is feeding too little or
not at all. Roses will thrive on
well-rotted manure or some other
organic fertilizer worked mtothe
soil around each plant If the or
ganic type is not readily available.
however, a standard commercial
fertilizer will suifice. About 'one
heaping teaspoonful j per- plant is
sufficient. Once during August
and about a month later in Sep
tember will keep your roses vigor
ous and productive.
There are a number of all-purpose
sprays and powders which
do an effective job if properly
used on roses during' the summer.
Questions and Answers j
L. E. D. says she used a widely
known rose dust on her plants
and it killed the foliage.
Ans.: The product she names
has been used successfully by
many rote growers in the Salem
vicinity. Perhaps she put it on too
thickly or too frequently. The rose
dusts should scarcely show on the
foliage and they should not be used
more often than every week or 10
days.
A. B. T. asks if the Salem Bego
nia society is open to new mem
bers and how to get into it.
Ans.: Send me a self -addressed
stamped envelope and 111 send
you the address of the society's
secretary. It is my opinion this
group welcomes' new. members.
Certainly it is an enjoyable group
to meet with.
M. H. V. writes she has used
sawdust about six . inches deep
around her rhododendrons. Put it
on early this past May and has
watered faithfully but still the
plants look wilted. Wonders if
sawdust is poisonous.
Ans.: No, to the last statement
first. But the sawdust mulch is too
thick. Sawdust decays slowly and
should not be used too heavily.
Water very likely has not pene
trated the sawdust Frequenly you
can water all day long and then
