The New Rose Expert
I'm weeding the gardening books in my library. I have about 50, and I rarely actually look at them. So I'm skimming through, trying to decide which are worth keeping, and which I can get rid of to make space for more books!
I have several books from the Expert series. The cover art on my edition is different, but this still seems a solid guide and of the two books on roses I have (the other is Time-Life's Roses, I think this is the stronger.
About 2/3rds of the book is a list of specific roses, organized by the seven groups of roses(hybrid tea, floribundas, patio, miniature, ground cover, climbers/ramblers and shrub). The rest of the book deals with planting and caring, including sections on identifying and dealing with pests and diseases. The design of the book is particularly impressive, packing a lot of information onto each page that is succinct in both text and illustration.
The only down side with this book is it's written for British gardeners. So the zone map and information on when to prune are for England, not the US. But that information is easy enough to look up on-line.
Verdict: a good reference on roses, keep.
