Some plants are sold without soil on the roots. These are called bare-root stock. This plant material is usually cheaper than plants in con­ tainers or plants having the soil around the roots and wrapped in burlap. Soak the roots of bare-root stock in water for at least 12 hours before planting. If you can't plant immediately, store plant material in a cool place out of wind and sunlight. Take care to keep the soil on balled burlapped plants moist. And, when planting, leave the burlap around .the roots but completely untie and remove the twine. Twine left on the plant could strangle the growing plant later. Container-grown or potted plants may be set any time the ground isn't frozen. They take the shock of transplanting much better than any other kind of nursery stock. FORMAL WEAR RENTAL for ALL OCCASIONS § Sfeufll th£ 1214 N. Green St., McHenry 4 V
