Great Britain, Gardeners Book Club, 1972. 1st Gardeners Book Club Edition, Binding: Cloth, Very Good/Fair. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall Hardback Hardback. Mark to inside cover from removal of old label. Wear to edges of D/J. Ink mark to top back corner of D/J. This is not a manual of instruction ho How to Grow Roses. it is simply a book about roses. This book is intended primarily for those who already grow roses, who know roses, or who love roses, whether they grow them or not. It contains a great deal of information which is not in the least necessary, but which will, I hope, provie interesting. At the same time I have not forgotten the needs of the beginner, who will find nothing here which is beyond his grasp. In dealing with the technacalities of cultivation I have kept as far as possible to first principles, so that the reader may not only know what he ought to do, but why he should dot it. Contents: Historical. Descriptive. Reporductive. Glossary. Index. Principal Rose Raisers and Hybridists. Illustrated. 286 pp.
