Favourite Rose Books?
Keen to increase my already oversized library of books about my
favourite plants, I wondered if the erudite, brilliant members of this group had any recommendations? What is your favourite book - for any reason - pictures, practicalities, dreaming? I would cite the following: Graham Stuart Thomas, the triple-decker classic Peter Beales, Classic Roses (though actually it's mostly in this excellent catalogue, and the same goes for David Austin's stuff) Vita Sackville-west, In Your Garden and a marvellous Jane Fearnley-Whittingstall book which is a history of the rose garden. I also like Yates's Roses (about growing in Oz, so not relevant, but fun) and The Search For Lost Roses. -- Jane Lumley |
