The lone Garden Club held
their meeting Feb. 11 at the
home of Mrs. Bill Ling with
Mrs. Frank Osmin assisting.
Trees along the streets of lone
will be pruned Feb. 24 and all
club members will partici
pate. Mrs. Lee Pettyjohn, youth
chairman, announced awards
for Smokey the Bear and
Woodsey Owl posters are
ready. The Conservation es
says, poems and posters will
be judged soon and sent to
district. 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

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. A dormant
spray should be used on winter
mulch before spring growth

starts. In parts of the United
States and Canada regular
spraying for disease and
insect control is necessary.
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. It is important to
follow directions carefully,
