JACKSON JONES CAN'T get away from roses. First his mother got him a plot at Rooter's, a community garden where Jackson planted a rosebush of thorns and no blooms. Now Mr. K., a fellow gardener, enlists Jackson's help to rustle up some rare old-time roses. The kind that grow in cemeteries! And no sooner do Jackson and his friend Reuben take the rose cutting home than Reuben's gloom-and-doom talk of curses seems real.
