    This review is from: The Old Rose Adventurer: The Once-Blooming Old European Roses and More (Hardcover)

    Brent Dickerson’s announcement of this book preceded its release by far too long. This is an essential rose book for the serious heirloom rosarian. Like its illustrious predecessor the book is divided by class. Roses are recorded with a separate section of illustrations, not all roses are illustrated. Rose rustlers will find this useful in trying to identify once blooming found roses. With so many roses extinct, this tome gives the reader a sense if what has been lost. Hving covered the once and repeat bloomers, what is left for Brent to cover but hybrid teas from La France to Peace??
