Sinopsis

Grow beautiful Roses with a clear, practical plan for every garden and show table.

This book guides you through two important divisions of roses: Garden Roses that enrich a backdrop with color and fragrance, and Show Roses chosen for symmetry and prize-worthy blooms. It encourages beginners and seasoned growers alike to build a solid foundation—then expand with purpose. You’ll learn how to balance overall garden beauty with the thrill of selecting and exhibiting the best individual blooms.

- How to create aRosary that blends abundant color with graceful, well-formed flowers
- How to choose robust, free-blooming varieties and avoid weak stock
- How to plan for both home display and competitive show results
- How to manage a budding-ground and keep roses healthy, productive, and ready for shows

Ideal for new Rose-keepers, serious Rosarians, and anyone who loves a well-tended garden as much as a striking exhibition bloom.

Excerpt from A Book About Roses: How to Grow and Show Them

With all the happiness which success brings to an author, I respond to the demand of an intelligent world for a new edition of my book; and, in grateful appreciation of their sympathies, I have the pleasure of introducing to my readers thirty new and beautiful Roses (see List of Roses for Exhibition), which have recently won our admiration as Maids of Honor in Queen Rosa's Court, together with the latest results of my experience, and the best information I possess.

Excerpt from A Book About Roses: How to Grow and Show Them

I Wrote A Book about Roses, because, having grown them lovingly and shown them successfully for more than twenty years, I thought that the results of my experience would be acceptable to others; and the demand for a third edition, nine months after the publication of the first, has realised my happiest hope. The present volume, carefully revised, after an inspection of the great Rose-shows of the season, at which, as one of the judges, I had special facilities of observation - after visits to public and private Rosaries - and after much interesting conversation and correspondence with our chief Rosarians - will be found to contain the latest intelligence and the best information as to the selection and the cultivation of Roses.
