Description
Roses are the most popular garden flower--and this directory of over 200 species, from floribundas to climbers, simplifies every gardener's work while improving each garden's appearance. More than 120 images show possibilities most gardeners never consider--first on familiar topics such as selecting, planting, and pruning their favorites, and then on new choices that expand every year. Tips on the latest solutions for year-round care, propagation, and pest and disease control come with imaginative ways to enhance ordinary flowerbeds with trellises and arbors, as well as how to turn difficult hillsides, tight spots, and dark areas into places of surprising beauty.
