Product Description
From the Back Cover
De la rose sauvage aux merveilleuse créations d'aujourd'hui, la rose, depuis l'Antiquité, n'a cessé de séduire les hommes. Symbole de la perfection, elle est l'orgueil des botanistes, des jardiniers et des fleuristes, l'inspiratrice des poètes, la favorite des parfumeurs. Alice Caron Lambert nous décrit la reine des fleurs sous tous ses aspects : symbolique, historique, botanique, décoratif, culinaire... Des conseils de jardinage et un carnet d'adresses complètent cet ouvrage.
