Growing Roses Organically: Your Guide to Creating an Easy-Care Garden Full of Fragrance and Beauty - Book Review

Science News, Sept 14, 2002

BARBARA WILDE

For gardeners weary of dowsing their rose bushes with pesticides, Wilde focuses on heirloom rose varieties and other new strains that are more cold hardy and disease resistant than common hybrid tea roses. Wilde systematically instructs readers on how to design, plant, and care for an organic rose garden. Profiles of individual specimens include a color photo of each flower and details about each plant's size, hardiness, uses, and susceptibility to disease. There are also a few blueprints of garden designs and many suggestions for companion plants.
