A beautifully illustrated and unique history of the rose--the "queen of flowers"--in art, medicine, cuisine, and more "From noted rosarian Peter Kukielski comes this unique and handsome book that traces the many ways that roses have captured human imagination throughout the history of civilization."--Meghan Shinn, Horticulture "I would recommend&nbsp;Rosa&nbsp;as a gift for anyone who loves flowers, although once purchased you would find it hard to pass on!"--Judith Blacklock,&nbsp;Flora Magazine Few flowers have quite the same allure or as significant a place in history as the rose. A symbol of love, power, royalty, beauty, and joy, the rose has played many roles, both literal and symbolic, in poetry, art, literature, music, fashion, medicine, perfume, decoration, cuisine, and more. &nbsp; In this beautifully illustrated guide, award-winning horticulturist Peter E. Kukielski and his coauthor, Charles Phillips, tell the fascinating and many-layered history of this "queen of flowers." The book explores many stories from the long association of roses with human societies, from their first cultivation--likely in China some five thousand years ago--to their modern genetic cultivars. It shows how roses have been prominent across time and many cultures, including ancient Greece and Rome, Christianity, Islam, and Sufism. &nbsp; The book, with more than 140 color illustrations, offers a unique look at the essential contributions that roses have made throughout human history.
