Roses in the Garden

The beauty and extraordinary history of the rose is celebrated through stunning photography of famous gardens throughout the world, from England and Italy to Morocco and Japan. No other floral genus offers such variety and enticement, with roses blooming in endless shapes and a remarkable spectrum of colors, complemented by an incomparable perfume. After three thousand years of cultivation, the rose continues to seduce. This book follows its nature and culture across twelve locations, showcasing the art of horticulture as expressed in garden design. Acclaimed photographer and writer Ngoc Minh Ngo presents the queen of flowers through a dozen renowned gardens in England, France, Italy, Spain, Morocco, Japan, and the United States. Each garden reveals its unique personality through prose and imagery, capturing the delight and seduction of this singular bloom. Ninfa, near Rome, is celebrated as one of the world’s most romantic gardens, especially in spring, while the Rose Garden of Sakura in Japan shines in early summer. With extraordinary gardens across twelve locations, Roses in the Garden offers a dazzling tour of the rose’s history and glory in its finest homes.
