The Rose Bible

Top gardening writer Rayford C. Reddell, who has won accolades from sources as diverse as M.F.K. Fisher, Horticulture, and the Wall Street Journal, and whose Garden Valley Ranch is the largest and most distinguished supplier of garden roses in the United States, has distilled his vast knowledge of the perennially popular flower into The Rose Bible, an indispensable reference for expert rose growers and weekend gardeners alike. The Rose Bible encompasses both antique and modern roses, from original species roses to recent hybrid teas and grandifloras, from bushes and shrubs to ramblers and climbers, and from tree roses to miniatures. Everything the budding rose lover needs to know is here along with valuable information for the most experienced gardener on such essentials as buying, harvesting, propagating, and pruning. The Rose Bible will become a welcome addition to any gardener's library and a classic for the serious rose aficionado.
