Von der hinteren Coverseite

Easier to raise and care for than many gardeners believe, English Roses have spearheaded a new movement toward reinstating the rose as a natural part of the garden landscape. Unlike their high-maintenance counterparts, English Roses require no more than the basics-sun, soil, water, and food. And with their fountain-like shapes, soft pastel colors, an memorable fragrance, they blend artfully into almost any garden's overall design.

This reference shows North American Gardeners just how to meet their English Roses' needs. From the straightforward presentation of sound and simple horticultural practices that ensure healthy, blooming plants to the full-color, cultivar-by-cultivar guide-cover suitability, stature and habit, uses, and more—it's a complete grower's resource.
