Rosemary Houseman, one of Australia's best-known authorities on old roses, is an artist to the core- her garden designs have a relaxed formality, her house overflows with much-loved objects and glorious flower arrangements. In Through the Rose Arbourshe traces the development of her lifelong passion for collecting, for gardening and for cultivating old roses, including the years at her influential nursery the Rose Arbour - once described as 'an arbiter of garden style and a magnet for rose lovers around Australia'. This book is both practical and very personal. It is full of gardening wisdom, conveying Rosemary's extensive knowledge of roses and how to grow, care for and incorporate them - old and new - into garden designs. Her reminiscences and the glowing photographs also take us on an intimate journey through a passionate and productive gardening life. No library descriptions found. |
