Roses In The Garden - a book review
Roses In The Garden by Ngoc Minh Ngo Photographer Ngoc Minh Ngo celebrates rose gardens throughout the world in this beautifully produced book. The author photographed a total of 11 gardens across the globe (Italy, Morocco, Spain, USA, UK, and Japan). Beginning with the Italian garden Ninfa (often referred to as the most romantic garden in the world), her photographs have a dreamy quality that transports the reader to these exotic locales. Closer to home, Floret Farm in Mount Vernon, Washington, is included in one of the chapters. All types of roses are included in the gardens but the majority feature old rose varieties. Many of the gardens have roses growing in wild abandon, intermingled in hedge rows, spilling over walls and fences and surrounded by pastures and rolling hills. A pictorial index lists all the roses and the gardens where they reside. This stunning book was published by Rizzoli Books and is available on Amazon and in bookstores.

These are beautiful frosty photos.
ReplyDeleteNice photos, Phillip. It was about 10 degrees warmer at mid-day here but cold by our standards so I also spent most of the day indoors too.
ReplyDelete#13 is my favorite.
ReplyDeletelol at first I thought you left the house to get multiple injections (shots). I was worried for you. Hope you’re well 😊
Haha, I will change the wording on that.
DeleteYes, 17 this morning and not expected to get above freezing today. This winter has been full of nights below freezing but this is the worst so far.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful frosty photos. I completely agree, that's too cold to want to be outside for very long.
ReplyDeleteThat first photo is gorgeous. The pot is an extention of the plant.
ReplyDeleteSeeing hoarfrost in the garden is a favorite winter view for me. No luck yet this winter, but I’m grateful that we’ve had snow.
