I got a good book at my new favorite book store. It is called "Growing Roses Organically' by Barbara Wilde published by Rodale press. Rodale has an 800 number posted (800) 848 -4735 and a website on organic gardening www.organicgardening.com.
Rodale is in PA, but the author wrote the book from her home in Paris. It has lots of great information and charts and everything. She has information on antique and modern roses, especially Kordes roses.
