by Mary Mc Murtrie (Author)
The Scots Roses of hedgerows and wild gardens are a characteristic feature of earlt summer. Modest in appearance at first glance, they nevertheless merit attention, for unlike some of their cultivated cousins thay are consistently reliable and completely trouble free. This is a pictorial survey by a very distinguished botanical artist of this attractive rose species. Mary McMurtrie's charming painting style capturs the soft texture and gentle colours of the petals and the sharpness of the thorns of this, the most prickly, but none the less, most beautiful, of roses.
