This book describes over 300 of the most popular and enduring varieties of old roses. Some trace their origins to China over a thousand years ago, others to Europe from the 14th century. The author writes with infectious enthusiasm on the choice of old roses for particular situations and styles of gardens. He discusses the basic care required to maintain old roses and describes how to restore neglected rose gardens.
