Series: The Joy of Flowers

(Re)discover the most charming flower of all time!

The rose is generally seen as the most romantic flower. No other plant blooms for so long and profusely, and comes in so many different shapes, scents and colours. Roses deserve a place in everyone's home, outside in the garden or on the balcony but certainly also indoors on the table.

The Joy of Roses answers every question you may have about roses: from the history of the rose to applications in the home. The different types of roses are discussed in detail with descriptions of the flower, the scent, the thorns, the inflorescence and information about the best place for this specific species. The book also provides information about cultivators, which flowers go well with roses and their care.

Anneke Beemer's beautiful photos complete the book.
