      Starred review from July 1, 2024

      Readers curious about growing roses or just wanting to look at beautiful pictures alongside poetic descriptions of stunning flowers will be delighted by this book. Poulson, founder of Southern California's Grace Rose Farm, offers readers a title that's richly filled with helpful information on hundreds of rose types. The book sorts them by color, and lovely photographs accompany each featured flower. There's also a key that details everything from hardiness zones to disease-resistance to whether the plant is suitable for container planting. Seasoned rose growers will enjoy the descriptions of each bloom and the helpful hints for care. Readers new to nurturing this flower will learn much, and Poulson's encouraging tone diminishes the intimidation factor of rose cultivation. The book provides up-to-date information about soil amendments, options for pest control, and preferred methods of garden preparation. The author is also humble in noting mistakes she's made; she hopes mentioning them will help fellow gardeners avoid making the same errors. VERDICT A tremendous, captivating resource for rose gardeners. This eye-catching book will look great on seasonal displays about gardening.--Elizabeth Majka
