Smell You Later, Donald Trump: How Roses Get Their Names
by Cara Giaimo
June 16, 2015

Rose names often make very little geopolitical sense: Cubana was bred in Germany, and isn't heat-resilient enough to grow in Cuba.

Walking into the Brooklyn Botanic Garden's Cranford Rose Garden is kind of like going to a fragrant, time-warped celebrity function. Dick Clark swaps pollen with a pink-cheeked Auguste Renoir. Betty White shares a tube of water with Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Bees swarm like paparazzi, and starstruck people lean over for a better view, or to take a long whiff.

Of course, these bedfellows aren’t famous painters or TV personalities any more than Seabiscuit was a cracker. They’re roses.

Is "William Shakespeare 2000" a robotic playwright? The long-lost third member of Outkast? Nope, just a rose cultivar that marries a “strong, warm Old Rose fragrance” with a “neat, upright shrub.” (Photo: Gryllus70/WikiCommons CC BY-SA 4.0)

Like show dogs or vacation homes, rose cultivars are too precious (and too numerous) to get by on their common names. “Modern roses today are hybrids of hybrids of hybrids,” says Melanie Sifton, the Brooklyn Botanic Garden’s Vice President of Horticulture. Anyone who successfully comes up with a new cultivar gets to christen it, and of the hundreds registered each year with the American Rose Society — the organization tasked with “recording, publishing, and establishing priority on rose cultivar names” — a fair percentage are named for famous people.

Roses and the celebrities they’re named after have some broad things in common: they’re attention-getting and sensorily overwhelming, and they look great on camera. Often, they have more specific similarities, too. “You could do a whole tour just on the personalities that are attached to the roses,” says Sifton. The Dolly Parton rose, for example, “is known to be a great performer, and it’s brash...this beautiful deep red color.” (She plans on visiting it this winter to see if its hips are big.) Julia Child’s is a buttery yellow that smells like licorice, and Archbishop Tutu’s blooms all the way into winter, its “sparkling” red petals “calling out greetings from afar.”



Until the mid-20th century, reports gardener Constance Casey, most roses were named after actual kings and queens, or “a few deceased notables.” It wasn’t until the 1950s and ‘60s that breeders, hoping to draw customers, branched out into Hollywood royalty. Now people like Celine Dion and Donald Trump pay tens of thousands of dollars to “walk the fields” of major growers and choose a bloom that reminds them of themselves.

Donau, a Kentucky Derby-winning racehorse, probably did not choose his own rose. (Photo: Cara Giaimo)

In established gardens like the Cranford, you’re still more likely to see older celebrities, thanks partly to the namers’ demographics (rose breeders themselves skew older—many are retirees, flown to warmer climes), and partly to plain old statistics (there are more older breeds around to choose from). Some have faded from the public consciousness entirely: Aviateur Blériot, once revered as the first person to fly across the English Channel, is now better known as a hardy yellow rose that ages to white. This year’s list of new recruits is twined with roses that could overgrow their namesakes—in a few generations, we might squint at plaques commemorating country star Miranda Lambert, Freddie Mercury impersonator Joseph Lee Jackson, or manga character Aoi Tsuki.

Some roses, like this Savoy Hotel, are named after a famous old place instead. (Photo: Cara Giaimo)

If a rose isn’t named for an objectively famous person, it’s likely named for someone more narrowly notable—the person who bred the rose, or someone that person loves. Charles Perkins, a grape and strawberry hawker who dabbled in plant breeding, named his first successful cultivar after his granddaughter, Dorothy. It sold so well that he ditched the fruit, and his company, Jackson & Perkins, became the country's premiere rose producer (although they don’t breed Dorothy Perkinses anymore—too mildewy).

Bigger rose companies now trademark their cultivar names to prevent confusing repeats—sorry, Elizas of the world. (Photo: Cara Giaimo)

When they run out of loved ones, some growers take requests. “When I started breeding roses I could never imagine the tragedies of people I would come into contact with,” says Robert Webster, who named one flower for a disgraced Marquess, and several for victims of murder, suicide, and cancer. “But I am pleased with the comfort, however small, I am able to offer from what I consider to just be a hobby.” His favorite rose—Betty’s Smile, a mildly scented light pink bloom—is named for his sister, who died of multiple sclerosis.

Rudolph Geschwind was a 19th century Austro-Hungarian rosarian. He named this creation, “Geschwind’s Schonste,” after himself—the name translates to “Geschwind’s Most Beautiful.” (Photo: Cara Giaimo)

Some rose names make intuitive sense. Climbing Pinkie, for example, is pretty self-explanatory. It’s hard to look straight at Blushing Knock Out, and Buff Beauty is both handsome and delicate. “I always try to match a name with a rose,” says breeder Richard J. Anthony. One of his latest concoctions, Tattooed Daughter, “was named by my friend after his daughter who has numerous tattoos... The rose is striped and reminded him of his daughter’s arm.” Melanie Sifton’s current favorite is Gourmet Popcorn—”it just looks perfectly like it was named,” she says, with clusters of small yellow-white blossoms that seem recently burst.

Doesn't this Lavaglut look like it just spilled out of a volcano? (Photo: Cara Giaimo)

Others are more of a reach. “If you’re really into breeding plants, you’re going to have hundreds if not thousands of opportunities to name [them],” says Sifton. Combine that with pressure from various marketing departments, and some of those are bound to be kind of silly. Crafton has a bunch of roses with names that seem to come out of nowhere — "Shalom," say, or “Freckles.”

“Sometimes a nurseryman wishes to obtain a rose for naming themselves, mainly to give a name that they believe is commercial,” says Webster—thus the pink behemoth Rose In Memory of My Cat, now sold all over Great Britain. Webster fears we’re forever past the days when “the public accepted that a good rose should have a good respectable name. Today most roses are sold because of the name… the quality of the rose seems immaterial. Sad but true.”

Some roses will never bow to commercial pressures. Sifton, who is from Canada, says “there’s one that my family loves but Americans don’t know about—it’s a rose that commemorated the War of 1812, which the British and Canada won and America lost. So it’s not something that you hear about down here that much… they probably wouldn’t even bring it to market down here.”

In Canada, though, it sells out as soon as growers get it in stock. There's something to be said for names with thorns.

Edmunds' Roses
Rosen Anbieter

Edmunds' Roses is a second generation family company started by Fred Edmunds, Jr. in 1949. His father, Fred Edmunds, Sr. was the curator of the Washington Park Rose Test Gardens in Portland, Oregon. After graduating from Cornell University and serving two years in the Army, Fred, Jr. leased 40 acres in Wilsonville and started growing roses. He moved the nursery to its present location in 1961. Over the years he developed a relationship with many of the world's rose hybridizing families and started introducing new roses to the U.S. market through his color catalog. Fred Edmunds, Jr. and his wife and partner in the business, Wini, retired in January of 1992 and sold the company to their son, Phil who had been in the business for 14 years, and Phils' wife, Kathy. Phil handles the production while Kathy manages the office. Fred and Wini are still very active in the business, helping out where needed and keeping in contact with rose lovers around the world.

Hybrid Tea Roses

Hybrid Teas are some of the favorites of rose gardeners who love to cut bouquets of long stemmed large flowers. Hybrid Teas typically have many petals, usually grow tall and upright, and present their blooms one-per-stem or in clusters of a few blooms. Many have great fragrance. Being versatile plants, they work as well in formal gardens as they do in casual plantings.

About Jackson & Perkins

Jackson & Perkins was founded in 1872, when "Charles Perkins", with the financial backing of his father-in-law, "A.E. Jackson", started up a modest enterprise wholesaling strawberries and grape plants from a farm in Newark, N.Y. He also sold directly to local customers who stopped by the farm.

In those early days, when you bought a garden plant from Jackson & Perkins, chances were you would make your purchase directly from Charlie Perkins himself. He would always say, "If it doesn't grow for you, let me know." When they did, he would provide either a replacement or a refund. To this day, every Jackson & Perkins plant is guaranteed to grow.

A Brief History of the Rose

Roses have a long and colourful history. According to fossil evidence, the rose is 35 million years old. Today, there are over 30,000 varieties of roses and it has the most complicated family tree of any known flower species.

The cultivation of roses most likely began in Asia around 5000 years ago. They have been part of the human experience ever since and mentions of the flower are woven into a great many tales from the ancient world.

Rose Terminology

• AARS: All-America Rose Selections, an association of commercial rose growers and sellers that Sponsors a nationwide program of rose trials each year.
• ARS: American Rose Society An association of more than 20,000 rose enthusiasts; dues include a subscription to The American Rose magazine. Contact P.O. Box 30,000, Shreveport, LA 71130.
• Bareroot: Any plant presented in a dormant state without soil on its roots. The traditional means of selling a rose plant.
• Basal Break: A cane that grows out of the 'graft union.' These are very desirable as they yield the biggest flowers, present lots of new bud eyes for later growth, and will replace older, worn out canes.
• Bud: The swollen portion at the end of a stem that will mature into a flower.
• Bud Eye: The swollen area found near the union of the leaf with the stem that will grow into a new stem.
• Bud Union: On 'grafted' roses, this is the swollen area at the top of the shank from which new canes (basal breaks) emerge. In climates with extreme heat or cold, it is best to protect the bud union by planting it below the soil level and mulching over the top.
• Calyx: The leaf-like, outer protective part of a flower. Individually, these structures are called sepals.
• Cane: The supportive branches of a rose bush. Canes are distinguished from stems in that they have hardened and are thicker.
• Cuttings: A form of assexual plant reproduction. A stem is cut about 6 inches long, all but the top 2 leaflets are removed, and the 'cutting' is then planted. If successful, new roots form and the 'cutting' grows into a copy of the parent rose bush.
• Cultivar: (aka: variety)A cultivated variety selected for propagation based on specific characteristics; such as form, fragrance, color or disease resistance. Wild or species roses are not cultivars.
• Deadhead: A means of encouraging a faster repeat of bloom by removal of the spent blooms just above a 5-leaflet set.
• Double: Flowers having 25 or more petals.
• Graft Union: See 'Bud Union.'
• Grafted: A grafted rose is one where the 'bud eye' of a desired variety is attached, or 'grafted', onto another variety that is used to supply the roots. Many roses sold are grafted because grafting allows the grower to produce many more plants more rapidly than by 'cuttings.'
• Hips: The pod of seeds that may develop if a spent bloom is not removed. Not all roses will readily cross- or self-pollinate. Hips can be a valuable source of food for overwintering birds. Allowing them to develop will reduce subsequent bloom.
• Hybridize: To create a new rose cultivar by selectively fertilizing one rose with the pollen of another one in the hopes that the progeny will carry some of the traits of each.
• Leaflet: One section of a compound leaf. The leaf begins where the leafstalk attaches to the rose cane. Leaves can have from 3 leaflets to more than 15, but usually have only 5 to 7.
• Once-blooming: A rose that has one annual bloom over an extended period in late spring or early summer. Most species and many old garden roses are once-blooming. Most modern roses are not.
• Own-root: A rose that is grown directly on its own roots rather than by budding onto a rootstock. In severe winter areas, own-root roses offer the advantage of being able to regenerate directly from their roots.
• Patented Rose: A rose for which unlicensed propagation is prohibited for a period of up to 20 years under Federal regulations. Plant patents, which will be granted only for new roses determined to be unique, are secured through the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office after considerable paperwork and expense.
• Pegging: The act of encouraging the long canes of a rose to bloom along their length by arching the canes outward or looping them inward toward the base of the bush.
• Pistil: The female organ of a flower, comprised of the stigma, style and ovary.
• Pruners: An essential tool for the rosarian. The best design is the bypass pruner, which has two blades that cut like scissors. The anvil pruner uses a flat plate to push the cane against a single blade, which often results in crushed canes, but is useful for cutting dead cane.
• Repeat: BloomingFlowering more than once a year.
• Rootstock: A variety whose vigorous roots are used as the foundation for a 'grafted' rose. Many roses sold are grafted because grafting allows the grower to produce many more plants more rapidly than by 'cuttings.'
• Sepals: The tough protective 'petals' that protect the flower bud.
• Semidouble: Flowers with more than 11 petals but fewer than 25.
• Single: A flower with a single row of 5 petals. Some consider roses with up to 10 or 11 petals a single flowers.
• Species: A group of plants that shares many characteristics and can interbreed freely.
• Stamen: The male portion of a flower's reproductive system, comprised of a filament that holds the anther (pollen pad).
• Stigma: The female portion of the flower that receives pollen grains for fertilization.
• Sucker: Stems that grow spontaneously from the roots of a 'grafted' rose, generally in an unwanted manner. Suckers on 'grafted' plants can be distinguished from the rest of the bush by differences in foliage and should be removed below the soil level to preserve the integrity of the plant.
• Very Double: Flowers having 75 or more petals.

Rose Types

• Hybrid Teas (HT) The most popular garden roses, Hybrid Teas are loved for their fragrance and their beautifully proportioned flowers in various vibrant colors. Hybrid Teas usually produce one spectacular flower per stem, from a long, pointed bud on plants from 3 to 5 feet tall.
• Grandifloras (G) When the hybrid beauty 'Queen Elizabeth' was introduced in 1955, there had never been a rose like it, and a whole new category was created. They're bigger and hardier than Hybrid Teas, sometimes 8 to 10 feet tall, and bear flowers, usually double, on long stems, singularly or some in clusters.
• Miniature Roses (Min) Many of these are tiny replicas of full-size Shrub roses, reaching a mere 6 to 30 inches tall; they are ideal for growing in a container, edging a walkway or as a low hedge. Others are 'mini' in size of leaf or flower only, and can reach heights of 6 feet!
• Mini-Flora (Min Fl) This is a new classification adopted the American Rose Society in 1999 to recognize another step in the evolution of the rose ­ a rose intermediate in bloom size and foliage, falling between Miniatures and Floribundas.
• Shrub Roses (S) This is a diverse group ranging from sprawling, low-growing ground covers to tall mounds. What they have in common is toughness and prolific bloom. Excellent choices for hedges and landscape plantings, they grow as wide as tall are very free bloomers. (While David Austin's English roses strictly belong in this class, I've given them their own topic area.)
• Groundcover Roses As their name suggests, these are trailing or spreading low-growers, mostly rebloomers with small leaves and clusters of 3 to 11 small flowers.
• Alba Often known as "white roses," these are large, branching shrubs with clusters of 5 to 7 usually white flowers and dense, bluegreen foliage that's disease resistant.
• Bourbon Vigorous open, repeat-flowering shrubs with fragrant double flowers, often borne in threes; plants grow 2 to 15 feet tall.
• Centifolia Literally, "one hundred petals," these Dutch hybridized roses are thorny shrubs with arching canes bearing clusters of large, fragrant, many-petaled blossoms; they are also referred to as "cabbage roses."
• China Small to medium Shrub roses with a loose spreading habit and small, mainly double flowers, single or in clusters, with a spicy fragrance. Sometimes re-blooming; not hardy.
• Damask Loose, graceful shrubs bearing clusters of 5 to 7 very fragrant blooms on plants 3 to 6 feet tall.
• Gallica Compact, upright shrubs with brilliant, often fragrant blossoms; the oldest class of garden roses. Once blooming.
• Hybrid Perpetual Vigorous, often re-blooming shrubs with flowers borne singularly or in threes; upright, about 6 feet tall, color range usually pinks and reds.
• Moss Named for the mossy growth on the stems and calyx, usually fragrant, many-petaled blooms; 3 to 6 feet tall, generally winter hardy.
• Portland Upright, dense bushes, usually re-blooming with fragrant, double flowers on straight stems.
• Ramblers Flexible canes requiring support and most often flowers with small blooms in clusters which ususally do not repeat.
• Sports (Mutations) Sports of hybrid teas, floribundas and others, which resemble their bush counterpart except for their climbing growth habit. They usually have an outstanding spring bloom, then only scattered bloom with more blooms in the fall.

Rose Garden

I hope you enjoy looking at my rose collection.

• New Zealand Roses... - My love of roses is shared with many gardening friends from all over the world. There are some roses which we all know and love, while others are famous only in their country of origin. Here are some of the best loved New Zealand roses.
• David Austin Roses... - David Austin Roses need no introduction. Like many other gardeners I have become totally captivated by the old-fashioned look of these beautiful roses. The flower colours are amazing, particularly the subtle pastels, and the rose names are evocative, too.
• Old Fashioned Roses... - I don't grow many old-fashioned roses in my garden - yet! I'm interested in getting more, though - and visits to old-fashioned rose gardens always inspire me to write huge lists. I love the history which accompanies old roses, with so many named after real people...
• Modern Shrub Roses... - My collection of modern roses is a beautiful mixture of floribundas, hybrid teas, rugosas, and hybrid musks. Some are once-flowering, while others repeat. For their placement I've checked in with my big Botannica's rose book - I'm surprised at some of the roses it classifies as 'modern', but never-the-less here they are.
• Garden Roses... - Anonymous roses in the Moosey garden cannot be ignored. It isn't their fault that they are nameless. There's no shame in not knowing your name, if you're a rose!

The first fossil records of the rose date back 35 million years. In 3000 B.C., in what is now Iraq, the Sumerians created the first written record of the rose. Sappho, in her 600 B.C. "Ode to the Rose," referred to this beauty as the queen of flowers, a reference still popular today.

Jumping ahead to the 16th century, colonists brought the rose to North America, making it the longest cultivated European plant in this country. In 1798, Empress Josephine acquired her palace at Malmaison and created the most remarkable rose garden ever planted. It included every variety known at the time (about 250).

"Modern" rose hybrids date back to 1867, and by 1920 hybrid teas dominated the market. They remain the most popular rose variety today. "All-America Rose Selections" formed in 1938 to test new rose varieties to determine which, if any, could be recommended to the public. One of the most popular roses of all time, "Peace," was smuggled to the United States from occupied France in 1945.

Public Gardens

One of the best ways to stop and smell the roses, besides those planted in your garden, is to visit one of the 130 plus AARS-accredited public rose gardens. Like the beautiful Morris Arboretum Rose Garden, each AARS garden blooms with hundreds, and sometimes thousands, of roses.

These gardens showcase AARS' new award-winning roses. Garden visitors can enjoy the winners as they grow and bloom - just look for the metal markers identifying the rose by name and award year.

Suddenly you sense a powerful and alluring fragrance. You track it down and find a new rose blossom ready to open.

Rose Classes
The many breeds of the Rose

There are a lot of ways of classifying roses; by their heritage or presumed genetic makeup, by when they were produced, by what size and shape they are and how they might best be used. Any rose classification system that attempts to express all the useful distinctions rosarians make about roses is bound to muddle together these concepts.

To a person new to roses, the number of classes is dizzying. A sort of 'person on the street' idea of rose classes might be; cutting roses, shrubs, miniatures, climbers. Or some method closely akin to this. A rosarian will rightly want to know "is it a wichuriana climber or a multiflora climber or a kordesii climber?" Because these things can affect the care and expectations of the rose.

The WFRS notion of a kind of heirarchical system with old and new making up the first heirarchical level has been adapted. Instead of using 'new,' we have broken up the more highly bred classes of roses in a way that more nearly parallels the 'person on the street' notion of roses classes. This has two poerful advantages: First, of immediate recognizability - novices and experts can start out using the same categories and language; and second, of not having to reinterpret 'old' and 'new' every couple of decades. For all that is new becomes old.

This said, we have pretty much stuck with WFRS categories, though we will occasionally use the terms Hybrid Tea or Floribunda because they seem more compact, melifluous, and recognizable.

Some of these categories are very narrow. Albas, Gallicas, and Damasks have quite a lot of similarities with oher roses in their classes and roses in the classes are frequently easy to distinguish from those of other classes. Roses in more highly bred classes such as Modern Shrubs will display quite a wide variety in their characteristics. Still, these groups are reasonably helpful in locating roses with similar characteristics.

Did you know? (about Roses)

Did you know that:

• By about 1200 AD the first five groups of domesticated roses had already begun to evolve in cultivation: Albas, Centifolias, Damasks, Gallicas and Scots Roses.
• The first guide to roses was written around 300 BC by Theophrastus, a pupil of Plato and Aristotle. Pliny the Roman went into more detail 200 years later with the equivalent of the world’s first catalogue, which listed thirteen roses.
• In France, from about 1820, that the deliberate and planned hybridizing of new roses from pre-selected plants began.
• Until the early nineteenth century dried rose petals were believed to have mysterious powers. Napoleon gave his officers bags of rose petals to boil in white wine to cure lead poisoning from bullet wounds.
• Napoleon gave his officers bags of rose petals to boil in white wine to cure lead poisoning from bullet wounds.
• It has been estimated that 150 million rose plants are purchased by gardeners worldwide every year.
• Perhaps the oldest painting in the world is a cave painting that depicts a five-petaled pink rose. It resides in a cave on the island of Crete and dates to about 1450 B.C.
• The world’s largest rose-bush is located in Tombstone, Arizona. It is almost two hundred years old and is adorned with more than two hundred thousand white blooms when in full bloom. Its trunk is nearly six feet in diameter, and its branches form a canopy large enough to shelter a crowd of 150 people.
• The oldest living rose bush, which is now the size of tree, grows against a cathedral in Hildesheim, Germany. Documentation proves it has been there since A.D. 815.
• Roses and Romance - Cleopatra (69 - 30 B.C.) celebrated the rose as an aphrodisiac; when she held a banquet in honor of her lover, Mark Anthony, in 42 B.C., the floor was carpeted with two feet of roses petals. Her bed was also covered with fresh roses daily, as were the beds of newlyweds in Roman times and rose wreaths were often hung by lovers on the doors of their beloved’s boudoirs. (The Rose, by Madison Mallone, Andrews and McMeel, a Universal Press Syndicate Company, Kansas City, MO, pgs. 51-52).
• First Greenhouses - Determined to find a way to get roses to bloom all year round, the Romans piped hot water into special growing rooms, creating the worlds first greenhouses. (The Rose, by Madison Mallone, Andrews and McMeel, a Universal Press Syndicate Company, Kansas City, MO, pgs. 56-57).

Rose Language
Language of Roses

A rose language was invented as a means of communication between lovers who were not allowed to express their feelings in the harems of the Middle East. Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, the wife of the British ambassador in Constantinople in the mid-eighteenth century, described in her letters how a red rose bud stands for budding desire, while an open white rose asks "Will you love me?". An open red rose means "I’m full of love and desire", while an open yellow rose asks "Don’t you love me any more?".

Roses are one of the oldest flowers, and with their age comes a long history of meaning.
Rosebuds denote youth and beauty; red rosebuds mean "pure and lovely, " while white rosebuds symbolize girlhood. The moss rosebud stands for confessions of love.
Deep burgundy roses denote inner beauty.

Basic Lessons in Rose Breeding
The How-To's of Rose Breeding

Welcome to the Texas A&M University Rose Breeding Program!

Situated in hot and humid College Station, Texas, we are faced with numerous growing challenges. The high humidity fosters the pathogens causing powdery mildew and blackspot. Local water contains high amounts of sodium producing a concrete-like structure in our already hard clay pan soil and a pH as high as 13 in some areas of Brazos County. The average rose struggles.

• Sepals: These are modified leaves that protect the flower before it opens.
• Petals: These are also modified leaves. Their purpose is to attract pollinators like birds and bees.

• Stigma: The surface on which pollen is deposited
• Style: The tube-like structure down which pollen travels to the ovary
• Ovary: The hollow cavity containing ovules
• Ovule: Structure containing the egg cells

• Anther: Contains the pollen grains that produce the male reproductive cells
• Filament: Bears and supports the anthers

• Pistil: The term for the collective female floral parts (i.e. stigma, style, ovary)
• Stamen: The term for the collective male floral parts (i.e. anther, filament)

The History of Roses

The History of Roses

Roses have a long and colorful history. They have been symbols of love, beauty, war, and politics. The rose is, according to fossil evidence, 35 million years old. In nature, the genus Rosa has some 150 species spread throughout the Northern Hemisphere, from Alaska to Mexico and including northern Africa. Garden cultivation of roses began some 5,000 years ago, probably in China. During the Roman period, roses were grown extensively in the Middle East. They were used as confetti at celebrations, for medicinal purposes, and as a source of perfume. Roman nobility established large public rose gardens in the south of Rome. After the fall of the Roman Empire, the popularity of roses seemed to rise and fall depending on gardening trends of the time.

During the fifteenth century, the rose was used as a symbol for the factions fighting to control England. The white rose symbolized York, and the red rose symbolized Lancaster, as a result, the conflict became known as the "War of the Roses."

Roses were in such high demand during the seventeenth century that royalty considered roses or rose water as legal tender, and they were often used as barter and for payments. Napoleon's wife Josephine established an extensive collection of roses at Chateau de Malmaison, an estate seven miles west of Paris in the 1800s. This garden became the setting for Pierre Joseph Redoute's work as a botanical illustrator. In 1824, he completed his watercolor collection "Les Rose," which is still considered one of the finest records of botanical illustration.

It wasn't until the late eighteenth century that cultivated roses were introduced into Europe from China. Most modern-day roses can be traced back to this ancestry. These introductions were repeat bloomers, making them unusual and of great interest to hybridizers, setting the stage for breeding work with native roses to select for hardiness and a long bloom season. Many of these early efforts by plant breeders are of great interest to today's gardeners.

The Little-Known Lore and Deep-Rooted History of Rose Names

No helpful gardening tips to be found; instead, the authors provide plenty of arcane facts and tantalizing revelation in an equally entertaining and educational foray into the competitive, complicated, and frequently comical world of rose naming.

Dorra, Mary Tonetti
Beautiful American Rose Garden

A rose is a rose is a rose, but every rose garden - and every rose gardener - is unique. In Beautiful American Rose Gardens, Mary Tonetti Dorra, author of Beautiful American Vegetable Gardens, captures the special beauty of twenty-four rose gardens devoted exclusively, or nearly exclusively, to America's most beloved flower. Traveling from Maine to the Pacific Northwest, from Florida to California, Dorra not only discovered a variety of rose garden designs, but also a myriad of approaches to cultivation, depending on climate, garden size, location, and, of course, the gardener's favorite roses.

Roses, long considered to be impossible to incorporate into the landscape, here prove themselves to be durable rather than delicate, versatile rather than difficult, and in every case absolutely dazzling in their splendor. Working out the logistics of successive bloom and meeting the challenges of too much heat, too much cold, too much moisture, or too poor soil, each gardener has developed his or her own cultivation plan -- and a selection of their secrets is presented in Growing Tips from the Gardeners.

What is most striking about this celebration of the rose is the shrub's potential variety -- endless combinations of colors, from the purest whites to the brightest reds and oranges; of forms, from tiny Miniatures to towering, tree-engulfing Ramblers; and of uses, from military rows to sinuous free-form borders to startling accents in the middle of the woods. Every featured garden is a gem that will inspire: New England old garden roses, some descended from those the Puritans carried across the Atlantic; a Colefax and Fowler-designed Palm Beach garden; the butterfly-shaped garden at Boone Hall plantation in South Carolina; the French-inspired garden of Maison Chenal in Louisiana; the astounding 350 varieties of roses grown in a garden in Spokane, Washington; and Dolores and Bob Hope's high-profile Hollywood garden.

With more than 250 color illustrations, Beautiful American Rose Gardens offers both intimate views of individual roses as well as bird's-eye views of overall garden designs. Tips from the owners, caretakers, and designers bring to life the fun, challenge, and joy that these gardens inspire. The garden plans and a thorough source list are a great starting point for new garden planners and an excellent reference for veterans. In all, Beautiful American Rose Gardens is an invaluable resource as well as a stunning tribute to America's favorite flower.
