Bring old roses back to itfe with these irtstrttctions
The rose is inclt beautiful
flower ,that, many people lois-
takenlY think it is also very
delicate, The fact is, it's, tough
and adaptable.
If roses' tap roots sink deep
enough, they will last for many
years, Roses have been found
growing on old abandoned
farms that have been left ne-
glected for as long as 5Q rears.
It's easy to revtve old and un,
eared for roses. The first step,
according to DONA book "All
About Pruning," is to remove
all brpken, dead and disease4
parts. Next, prune away weak,
twiggy and inward-irowing
wood, Also prune wood rubbing
against another branch,
Now, open up the center of
the bush by pruning back to the.
vigorous outward-facin$ buds,
Cut back the young wood to two
to three buds, And then fertilize.
Don't do any more than that or
you might send the. plant into
shock,
• Then when new growth be-
gins in the spring, spray with a
fungicide like
Rose Disease Control to control
diseases such as black spot, rust
and• powdery mildew;
During the next dormant
period cut out one of .the old
branches at ground level. Take
another of the old remaining
branches, and reduce it by half.
Next cut back two-thirds of the
new wood, _ If you, repeat this procedure
for the neXt tWO Winter$, you
Otoulti end up with a rose bush:
that has no wood over three
years old.
Also, each year during revi,
val Pruning you Should sec art
increase in new wood and better
'quality roses.
