A detailed and highly collectible edition of The Rose by H. B. Ellwanger who was associated with the historically important Mount Hope Nurseries in Rochester, NY. This was one of the significant American nurseries of the 19th century. That gives the book regional horticultural importance beyond being just a generic gardening handbook.

Bound in deep blue cloth with striking black floral ornamentation and gilt lettering, this Victorian horticultural volume offers an extensive study on the cultivation, classification, propagation, exhibition, and breeding of roses during the late 19th century.

The text explores rose varieties, permanent colors, planting methods, pruning, propagation techniques, insects and diseases, and notable growers from Europe and America. Particularly appealing are the extensive catalogues of varieties and discussions of historic rose cultivars, offering a fascinating glimpse into Victorian gardening culture and the development of ornamental horticulture.

Binding secure. Decorative endpapers present. Rubbing and moderate wear to the boards and spine. Light wear to corners/edges. Moderate toning throughout. Interior remains clean. 291pp.

Condition: Good +

Size: 4 3/4” x 7”

A  sought-after Victorian horticultural work from one of America’s important historic nursery figures.

I bought this set for my son's high school graduation back in May! Came quickly, and it was exactly what we needed. It fit as described, and looked very nice during the ceremony, along w his cap n gown. Well worth the $ spent!

Ok product for average shape
Size: Large, Color: White
ok for the price but didn't work out for us. I had one guy whose body is thick and one who is thin. Couldn't get the set to fit on top and bottom at the same time, pants were a lil see through, but still decent quality and price.
