Summary: Mini-roses - in the dark still...
Comment: This is Not the book you want to buy, if Any of the following apply: you need specific information on container-planting (more than a few lines); are new to rose-growing; you want more info than the book will provide (no bibliography). I was disappointed in this book. I am a new owner of miniature rose bushes, and wanted a fairly comprehensive volume to explain all aspects of container planting, watering, feeding, how to remove buds and when, etc. This book seemed more like a off-the-cuff attempt at money-making without any attempt at sharing real knowledge of the miniature rose and its care. An experienced rose-grower will likely know all that is contained in these pages, and the novice best look elswhere - as I shall. The pictures are very professionally taken and are pleasant to view, but I would have preferred more descriptives along with photos - e.g. types of soil roses in pictures were planted, feeding schedule of those flowers shown, or something along those lines. The writing style was not clear, and seemed contradictory as well. Definately geared to the coffe table, not the serious grower. The search continues for the perfect rose...mine are dying as I type, thanks in part to my choice of this book, plus a LITTLE help from my general ignorance!
