Roses And Shrubs
Damaged By Cold
Low temperatures during the
week ending March 13 did much
damage to the ornamental trees,
shrubs, and flowers in the home
landscape, and many people are
wondering what can be done
about it. Miss Frances Riley,
County Home Demonstration Ag-
ent, gives a few points on the
proper treatment of these injur-
ed pBants.
Rose plants which had started
growth before the cold spell are
now a sad sight. Most of the new
growth and a part of the old
wood has 'been killed. Don't be
hasty in cutting back the plants.
Wait until the new sprouts come
out on the main branches, then
cut back to a good vigorous one
on the branches.
Other plants should be han-
dled in a similar way—the point
is, don't get in too big a hurry
to cut back the plants the new
growth which will develop in a
short while should be the guide
at to the time and the place for
making the cuts.
Huntsville Garden

er wealth of color will be added

hance their gardens.
