A Rose by Any Name by Douglas Brenner
The authors tackle the thorny task of digging up the history behind rose names. Their stories are filled with enough romance, tragedy, mystery and scandal to satisfy even those who would never dream of actually tending a plant.
Douglas Brenner writes about gardens, design and collecting for publications such as the New York Times, Martha Stewart Living and Country Living. He inherited his first rosebush, 'Climbing American Beauty', from a previous owner of his house, who planted it there around 1910. Stephen Scanniello is is a recipient of the Great Rosarians of the World (GROW) Award for 1009, president of the Heritage Rose Foundation, a member of the American Rose Society, and a judge for the international rose trials in Europe and the United States. Scanniello has written three books on roses, including A Year of Roses, recipient of the American Horticultural Society's Annual Book Award.
