ROSE PHOTO BOOKS
The prescence of a book on this list does not indicate that I agree with the methods or information provided by the author. Its just that they have a picture of the rose in question on the page indicated. These books were chosen either because they were already in my library, a picture was included that I'd had some difficulty finding, or because I try to pick as diverse books as possible not knowing what will be easily available to you where you are. Each book has a little blurb by me at the end that you might take as a short review.

Continued from the top.......
The two pictures for each variety should be of a closeup of the flower (top left) and a picture of cuttings (top right).
The picture of the cuttings will show several different possibilities including;
1. not yet viable cuttings being pointed at with a pencil (cuttings have to be between the thickness of a pencil and the thickness of my small finger),
2. cuttings inserted in one gallon pots and placed in a zip lock bag,
3. if the cuttings root it will show a picture of plants growing from a one gallon pot (multiple cuttings in a single pot have to be divided).
4. If I send cuttings out to a greenhouse it will show many loose cuttings in a large plastic bag in a box being readied for shipment.
Additional pictures will probably be of the plants that we are taking cuttings from (or all the plants we have of this type grouped together).
Click the picture for a larger image that can be studied more closely or saved as wallpaper (if a different picture I will over-write with the inventory picture next spring). The date the picture was taken should be noted in a corner of the picture.
