Roses without Chemicals by Peter Kukielski

This book was my bible when I started growing roses here in Maryland. I combined it with my observations at the National Botanic garden to pick those first roses.

it was published in 2015 which makes it nearly a decade old and many disease resistant roses have been introduced in that time. Does anyone know if there are plans in the works for an updated edition?

Who uses "chemicals"? What a dumb word since we all are composed of chemicals, primarily water. Diane

Diane, if you're serious, 'chemicals' are often used in a negative connotation, just like in the book title.

Diane, I don’t disagree about the title, but the book is a great resource

nonetheless.
