Second edition. Hardback in dustwrapper. 29 × 24cm, 319pp. Signed directly to the title page by David Austin. English Roses have achieved international renown for their many virtues and unique beauty, and yet David Austin's work creating even better and more pleasing varieties is ongoing. In this second revised edition he describes how he set out to combine the beauty and fragrance of the Old Roses with the repeat-flowering and wide colour range of the Modern Roses. David presents seven groups of classification for his roses, which helps us to appreciate them better and understand their great diversity. This includes the original Old Rose Hybrids; a group he has called The Leander Group which leans a little more towards the Modern Rose in appearance; The English Musk Roses, based on the Old Musk Rose; The English Alba Hybrids; The Climbing English Roses; The English Cut-flower Roses and Some Other English Roses. Each group has its own unique beauty. This second revised edition of The English Roses also features more than 20 new rose varieties all with detailed descriptions, and updated photography throughout. The English Roses have brought the rose to a new level of beauty. With them David Austin has returned to the form of flower of the Old Roses; incorporating this with many different rich fragrances, a pleasing, shrubby habit of growth and the ability to flower continually throughout the summer - making them one of the most beautiful and useful of garden flowers. With photographs of superb rose gardens and advice on growing and maintaining his roses, David Austin's The English Roses is an essential reference for every rose lover and gardener. Condition: This copy is in very good condition, but there are three small pinprick holes to the front joint of the wrapper.…
