Pink Ladies & Crimson Gents
Portraits and Legends of 50 Roses
by Molly and Don Glentzer
Some old roses are named after famous figures of art and legend like Mozart and Don Juan. But who was Adelaide d’Orléans, Lady Banks, or William Lobb? This exquisitely illustrated book tells the revelatory stories of the men and women who gave their names to 50 old roses—damasks, musks, bourbons, and all. With its fascinating descriptions and museum quality color photographs, the book is a gorgeous keepsake for rose lovers, rose breeders, gardeners of every stripe, and anyone who loves romantic legends and true tales of high society.
