IIRC, there -is- a "Roses for Dummies."

The Ortho book about roses is a very good basic text.

I agree with the other recommendations. If I
were you I would go to a bookstore, to the garden
section, look over the books and buy one (or more)
that you personally find useful (you like the
illustrations or the text or whatever) at a price you
like. I started with the basic Sunset and Ortho
books and they worked fine for me - until I got up
to 150 roses then I got more rose books.

Its best to do a search using your local libraries web page, there are a lot
of books.
Here are two here that I just got the other day.
"Rose Basics" by Amanda Beales"

"The Rose Bible" by Rayford Clayton Reddell.
