Most garden books, including those about roses, are intended for climates found in England and the U.S. East Coast.  Very few deal with the special challenges of rose-growing in the semi-desert, Mediterranean climate of Southern California.

A Year of Million Roses walks you through each month’s activities in your Southern California rose garden. Special Topics each month help you enjoy your roses even more. Each chapter tells you what to do that month, identifies what problems might be encountered, and what you can do about them. Pruning, feeding, watering, and many other special topics about roses are covered in this little book, which might just become the only book on roses that you really need.
