  Roses are one of the world's favourite flowers, and their sweet scent and long-lasting beauty makes them indispensable in the garden. With over 200 roses described and photographed, this book helps you to choose the right plant for your garden, from free-flowering old-fashioned roses to eye-catching modern roses; vigorous climbers to delicate miniature roses. The comprehensive Grower's Guide section shows how to maintain your roses in good condition. Clear text and step-by-step photographs explain how to select healthy roses, how to plant them, when (and what) to prune and how to propagate new plants. Whether they are grown singly, en masse or in conjunction with other plants, as hedges or ground cover, winding through a tree or in containers, there is a place in every garden for roses.
