This is a book we've been waiting for for years. I believe it will be available in August.
I'm awaiting expanded information on ordering.

Jeri

The HRF thread linked below will show just how eager some of us have been.
Elsewhere, there's mention that it might be available in Canada slightly earlier this year.
Any leads to quickened availability are most welcome.

Oh my!!!
I would love to have this book!!! I have very seldom seen a book just about Tea roses!! This is very exciting.

Deb

Had a feeling some of you rosy gurus would already have the full skinny on this ; )

Jeri,

You need to write a book...

Who can let us know when the Tea book becomes available to purchase? Sounds like a great book.

Thank you,
Carla

Daun -- No need for me to write it.
The Tea Bags (yes, that IS what the authors call themselves) have done it for me.
Hang in there. I think there may be good news soon!

Jeri

I've got my money in hand and ready to spend it on this book.
As we get closer to the release of this book, any updates will be very much appreciated.

Randy

FYI - even though it shows as unavailable on Amazon.com you can pre-order from Amazon Canada (amazon.ca) - my account shows estimated shipment mid-July...

George

I preordered my from Amazon Canada in January with the estimated shipment in July. I often order from Amazon Canada, it usually works great.
Olga

Thank you for the info, George & Olga. I'll check out Amazon Canada.

Randy

I just ordered a copy from Barnes and Noble and they will be shipping sometime in June.

Hang on for a few days. Something's in the works for a U.S. source for the book.

Jeri

Jeri, is there going to be a bulk order placed through HRF?

So .....

Have you guys ordered the book from Ashdown yet?
They sent emails out today that they are offering the book. It'll be mailed out in late May / early June. Each order sends a donation to HRF. They have 3 adobe documents offering previews. It looks like a very good book.

But the previews make me wonder if the tea roses in Australia will be the same as what we have offered in the US?

If I wasn't such a tea afficianado it probably wouldn't be worth the money - over $50! Most of my books are free cause they come from the library!

I just got my order in through Ashdown today. Got an email from them saying they'll be carrying it. Actually I'd pre-ordered through Amazon Canada, but there's does not become available till August - so I canceled that order and put it in through Ashdown. Can't wait to get my hands on this book.

Weathersby -- The U.S. and Canada share most of the Teas -- tho they have some we do not.
(And because of government-imposed restrictions, we cannot order from Oz. Long story.)

On Found Teas, their study names may differ, but even there, they have more or less the same roses we do.

Jeri

My daughter Jessica just called me to say she had ordered me this book from Barnes and Nobles!!! I am shocked! I am usually the one to spring little surprises on her since she is in college. But the little sneak surprised ME this time! I am almost in tears because I am so happy....I am thrilled she got me this book!!!

Deb

Deb -- There's a problem with that Barnes & Noble thing.
They "advertised" it at a really low price.
They've told the Publisher that they will either cancell those orders, or request the increased $$$.
I think that's a real cheesy way to do business, but you might want to suggest that your daughter check with B&N on it.

Jeri

I just put my order in with Ashdown, within minutes of spotting the email. I can hardly wait, plus they donate part of the proceeds to the Heritage Rose Foundation!
