Kurzbeschreibung
Often called the “king of roses,” Peter Beales is the world’s most acclaimed professional rose grower, and this book is the distillation of his 50 years of experience and knowledge into one essential volume. Within these handsomely illustrated pages is Beales’s unequalled advice on landscaping with roses as well as care and cultivation―all based upon his decades of experience breeding and selling the world’s finest roses.
There is a rose for every budget and every garden style, and this is the ideal book to use in selecting the perfect rose. Roses come in every size from miniatures just right for containers to the expansive climbing roses. The first part of the book explains the six different major groups of roses and profiles the best cultivars in each category. Peter Beales describes the best landscape uses for each rose, details their pros and cons, and describes their care. Interwoven throughout are his charming yet fascinating personal observations and reminiscences recalling experiences with roses, notable gardeners, and important breeders.
The last section of the book is an encyclopedic directory of roses that includes full color close-up pictures of each rose in full bloom, detailed descriptions, planting suggestions, hardiness factors, and information on care, cultivation, pests, and diseases. This sumptuously illustrated volume by Peter Beales will be the definitive guide to gardening with roses for years to come.

A love affair with roses
15. April 2005
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Peter Beales is one of the most recognized names in the rose world and his previous book "Classic Roses" is still one of the best reference books for roses on the market. His latest, "Passion for Roses" is not a reference book but a good introduction to roses. In the first chapter, Beales writes about how his love affair with roses began and how it has progressed since he first discovered them as a teenager working in a nursery. He has traveled the world photographing roses and many of them are included here. He also remembers some of the most memorable gardens he has visted.
Subsequent chapters describe the different types of roses (species, old roses, modern roses, climbing roses, ramblers and scramblers, etc.) The last section of the book is an encyclopedic directory of roses mentioned in the book. The photographs are lovely and this is a beautiful book to browse through. However, if you are just looking for reference information about individual roses, then you would want to buy his "Classic Roses" instead.

Oh WOW, (Sigh)
18. November 2008
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This book contains some of the most breathtaking photographs of gardens I've ever seen. You can practically smell the scent and hear the bees!
Travelling around the world, Mr. Beales toured a variety of gardens that feature roses and in this book shares the pictures, descriptions and chats with the gardeners. From tightly manicured English gardens to wildly exuberant Pacific Northwest gardens, the rose shows her versatility and adaptability. The pictures of gardens containing four hundred roses of a single variety, as well as hundreds of other varieties and other flowers makes one want to jump through the page! There truly is a rose for every garden, and Mr. Beales proves it. This is a book for inspiration and armchair travel indeed!

Passion for Roses
9. Februar 2008
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Needing some specific advice on what roses to buy for my garden, I sent for the book'Passion for Roses' I found it gave me all the information I required,a very detailed discription of the roses, the expected height the rose bush, the scent or no scent, as the case may be, their tolarance to rain and sun and other useful information. A beautifully illistrated book showing the colour of the Roses, this book is a real pleasure to have.
It did take longer than stated to arrive, but I did receive an e-mail advising me of the re scheduled date, keeping the customer informed.
I would recommemnd the book to any one.
