Editorial Reviews

Review
An exceptional introduction to the wide world of roses. It will be most useful to the newly smitten but has plenty of appeal for the intermediate rosarian as well. Far more useful than the typical picture book, this one provides lots of information in compact -- Ann Lovejoy "Horticulture" (02/01/2000)

Product Description
Suitable for a broad range of rose enthusiasts, this is more than just a big picture book. It lists groupings, parentage, other names and varieties, and year and place of origin for more than 1100 garden roses. Classifications include wild, gallica, damask, alba, centifolia, Portland, bourbon, boursault, china, noisette, rugosa, tea, hybrid perpetual, polyantha, climbers and ramblers both old and modern, hybrid tea, floribunda, shrub, and miniature and dwarf roses.
