5.0 out of 5 stars
INFORMATIVE, COMPREHENSIVE--A GREAT GIFT!, November 2, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Beautiful American Rose Gardens (Hardcover)
I was drawn to this book by the stunning pictures of roses and rose gardens. However, it is the wealth of valuable information on EVERY aspect of roses that make this one of my all-time favorite gardening books.
This book would make an excellent present for the neophyte and expert gardener alike. The author's passion is contagious. A great read and highly recommended

More for the rich than the poor, June 24, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Beautiful American Rose Gardens (Hardcover)
Beautiful American Rose Gardens is a good but not a great book because too many of the rose gardens discussed in this book are too large (acres and acres). The pictures are wonderful and descriptions are well written and I recommend that rose lovers read this book. However, the book doesn't give enough detail into how a reader can create their own rose gardens, especially if they are not professional rosarians or wealthy enough to afford professional gardners. Most of the gardens in this book are owned by rose retailers or rich or famous people like Bob Hope.
