Camellia bushes and trees had grown to unusual heights an ideal climate part of the credit. Margaret's stepping stones to spectacular success with her roses seem to have been heavy applications of barnyard manure, early spraying with lime and white sulphur, applications of Black Leaf 40 as needed, and regular irrigation to a good depth." One reason why this rose garden has improved with age as Margaret explains it is that "we don’t prune to death but rather prune to strengthen the plant." A. B.

Rose Garden The Bradley rose garden is well known in town because of the endous number of large, very blooms, and for the rare roses growing there. It started 40 years ago and seventh of the original plants are still nursed tenderly along forimental reasons and for the fact that they represent varieties rarely extinct now and irreducible. The garden has become daughter Margaret's hobby, a rather unusual undertaking because she are at least 150 plants to be planted for. They are planted in rows on the sunny side of house, and the climbing vines entwine the wire fence encloses the yard. Some of the plants were gifts late Fred Howard, famous gardener and friend of the fam. He developed many popular varieties and gave choice plants to Bradleys while still in the experimental stages. The roses range in size from theacular "Doctor" whose showy measures all of six inches diameter to the tiny polyantha of which the Cecile Brunner perhaps best known. Among the family favorites are all-American varieties, "Fred Key," named for the horticulturist and "Helen Trauble."
