Synopsis

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 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.
