Description
|
|
|
|
Making a convincing argument that the climbing rose is the natural companion of the clematis, John Howells shows how, when the two are grown together, the overall effect can be dramatic. The rose serves as a sturdy and beautiful platform for the clematis, while the clematis makes a fine background for the showier rose; the two also favor the same conditions and need protection from the same pests. In plain, straightforward language, illustrated with 139 color photos, Howells covers classification, important seasonal growing information, pruning techniques, and planting details, and offers invaluable advice on color.
