This paperback edition is written by the daughter of one
of the most famous English rosarians, Peter Beales. Amanda has written a concise guide to growing
and taking care of roses. She tells you
what roses are available, how to design your landscape with roses from formal gardens
to garden for special situations. I like
best the chapter on garden design. It
gives a lot of ideas on how to incorporate roses into the landscape. There are a couple of pages where she lists
some roses which will tolerate some shade.
There are suggestions on what roses to plant in a difficult
situation. There is also a calendar on
what tasks have to be done in what particular month of the year. There is even a glossary for the novice and
not so experienced rose gardener. An
inexpensive but excellent guide!
