Background:
These beautiful Rose prints are from the First Edition of Ellen Willmott's The Genus Rosa,
one of the finest of the twentieth century books on Roses. Willmott, one of the most
respected gardeners of her time, created the gardens at Warley Place. She was particularly
interested in Roses, with several named after her. The prints are based on watercolors by
Alfred Parsons (1847-1920), also known for his landscapes. Wilfred Blunt describes Parsons
Rose illustrations as "his best botanical illustrations".
