5.0 out of 5 stars
A treasure of a book!!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Roses: A Growing Guide for Easy, Colorful Gardens (Burpee Basics) (Paperback)
Exceedingly well researched and clearly presented, this book makes roses doable for everyone-no matter the climate, type of rose, or gardener's experience. There are terrific sections on choosing roses (grafting or own-root, grades, where to buy, etc.), planting, and general care. But the best part is "the rose gallery"-a list of 100 most carefree roses from among all the rose types, including old roses, modern ones, shrubs, and climbers. Weaver checked with some 70 rosarians, plant pathologists, and nursery growers in 40 states and weighed disease resistance, hardiness, general vigor, and overall performance to come up with the list. Each rose gets a good description and most have photos. A wonderful book.
