5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent rose book. Super how-to diagrams., 21 Feb 1999

By A Customer

If you have only one rose book in your collection, ORTHO's All About Roses by Dr. Tommy Cairns is the book to have. It is a great book for novices as well as the more experience rosarians. I am exceptionally impressed with the diagrams detailing: soil and site preparations, disease and pest identification, nutrient deficiency, pruning techniques and pruning problems. These are the clearest and most understandable diagrams that I have found. The diagrams alone make this book invaluable for every rose grower. All About Roses also provides a good overview of rose forms with helpful suggestions on incorporating roses into your landscape. Planning a rose garden? You will find insightful suggestions on designing the rose garden that best fits your needs. The book also contains a better than average rose selection guide which should be valuable to less experience rosarians. This is a book that I will never loan out of my library.
