In honor of the season of giving, and with much appreciation to the Irondequoit Public Library, where we’ve held our rose show for the past two years, here’s our gift to you: the books part of this Books & Blooms blog.
The members of the Greater Rochester Rose Society have drawn on their knowledge and experience and compiled a list of their favorite books about growing roses. A few of these titles have already been reviewed here, and more will be reviewed in the upcoming year. Many of these titles are available through the Monroe County Library System, and all of them will provide inspiration and suggestions for gardening with roses in 2018. Happy Holidays, Happy New Year, and Happy Gardening to Everyone. May 2018 be a rosy year for us all. Recommended Reading for Rose Lovers 100 Old Roses for the American Garden, Clair G.
