Each member brou ght her favorite gardening book for the display table. "Propagation of Roses" was the topic presented by Mrs. Pete Klinger. She stated growing roses can be a most rewarding experience for the gardner. Since the introduc tion of more tender species from China and other Eastern countries there have been new problems in culture, decreas ed resistance to pests and diseases, winter hardiness and a decrease in vigor of growth. Next to pruning, the most controversial subject in connection with the growing of roses is winter protection. There can be no set rule to solving this problem because there are many variables involved; fertilization, weath er during the fall and winter, amount of moisture and pro tection from wind. Many growers believe alternate fre ezing and thawing and expo sure to wind are more important than actual low temperatures in causing win ter injury. In the culture of roses during the growing sea son, there are several things which can be done or avoided to help them winter better. Unripened growth is the first thing to avoid. This is often caused by feeding late in the season and overwatering. Plants must have time to allow hardening of old wood before the winter season. Late pruning is another potential cause of winter injury. It may cause tender new growth that cannot with stand cold freezing weather and make wounds which do not heal, thus being vulner able to disease. Some things that can be done to protect roses is hilling up the dirt, mulching and keeping a clean rose garden. "Hilling up" of roses is done by building a cone of dirt nTnrni.H.....u....n. Wei) 1 r Page about the base of the plant, covering the canes to a height of 8-12 inches. This should be soil brought in or well-rotted compost. In either case, it may need to be removed in the spring to prevent a build up of the rose bed. "Mulching" in addition to hilling can be beneficial because it protects against quick changes in tem peratures. Probably the most basic factor in having healthy roses is to have a clean rose garden. Since most diseases and many of the pests are spread by actual physical contact, sanitation is of the ut most importance.

Ideally, a five-day spray program is suggested but since many people garden on weekends a seven-day pro gram will suffice. Dusts may be used, but are less effective. The modern seed stores and garden centers now help the rose gardner by carrying a broad-spectrum chemical that controls a wide variety of pests such as aphids. spider mites, rose bugs and Japanese beetles.
