organic material?
I am about to plant some new roses and the instructions ask for organic
material to be mixed with the soil. what can I use for organic material? I don't have compost. A pipe gives a wise man time to think and a dumb man something to stick in his mouth. |

Sphagnum Moss is a very good organic additive when one plants roses. If you go to a nursery to buy that stuff, you might also be able to buy good quality compost at the same place. Compost is the very best organic additive, if you have a good source for it. -- Radika California USDA 9 / Sunset 15 |

organic material?
Do you have any horses in your area? Horse manure is the best for roses.
Older decomposed is better but sometimes you just have to use what's on hand or under foot. -- Rob Smith, NY www.allwoodwork.com Woodworking, Home, & Garden Community "SBHCOM" wrote in message ...
