Download or read book Growing Roses in Subtropical Climates written by Paul Hains and published by . This book was released on 2014-10-10 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book answers the most common rose growing questions, and some less common ones. * Why don't the roses I buy at the florist have perfume?* How and when should I prune my roses?* Why can't I use roundup near roses?* Can I grow roses successfully using organic controls?* After I prune, how soon can I expect to pick flowers?* How are roses named, and what do the codes mean on the labels?* What are the best roses for subtropical climates?* How do I create and name my own rose varieties? Over the years there have been many articles written on growing roses in subtropical climates. As the President of the Queensland Rose Society the author wrote many of them. What has been missing is a more comprehensive rose growing guide. Almost every available rose growing book in Australia has been written in South Australia or Victoria. The advice contained in those books is less suitable for the subtropics as the authors have little experience in the toils of gardening in humidity. Growing Roses in Subtropical Climates has 166 pages of content and has been written in plain English, so you don't need a horticultural degree to understand it. There is even a glossary in the back for common rose growing terms. Full of illustrations and colour photographs, this is a reference that gardeners will keep close at hand to making rose gardening simpler.

Download or read book Roses Down Under written by Dawn Eagle and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rose is undoubtedly the most popular garden flower in the world. When settlers came from the Northern Hemisphere to Australia and New Zealand they brought their treasured roses with them. Roses Down Under follows the way roses may have been introduced into both countries where they not indigenous. In each country enthusiastic gardeners and Rosarians such as Alister Clark and Ron Bell in Australia and Ken Nobbs and Sam McGredy in New Zealand were inspired to develop their own varieties. There is a chapter dealing with the complexities of hybridisation, going through the process step by step, so the reader can follow in their footsteps. Various rose breeders from both countries, both professional and amateur, are listed, together with numerous photographs of their significant varieties. These illustrate the differences, as well as the similarities, of roses produced in Australia and New Zealand since the days of the first settlers. The Victoria State Rose Garden at Werribee, outside Melbourne, has been chosen to represent the large number of rose gardens in Australia, with many photographs illustrating the diverse collection of roses growing there. In New Zealand, the Trevor Griffiths Rose Garden in Timaru was chosen because of the comprehensive nature of roses planted in that very interesting garden. The final chapter asks where roses will be in the future. Will varieties produced in each country be similar, or very different? One thing is sure. They will always be, for gardeners, the Queen of Flowers.
