Delightful, unexpected and so beautifully written! The lovely little book about the quest to find the origin of a family rose was so much fun and made me feel like I was on the adventure with him. Now I want to add a rose or two to my garden! Thanks @Kdgordon88 this was a great read! #ReadingEurope Italy @4thhouseontheleft @Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage #Booked2020

@Kdgordon88 Thank you so much, Debra! I love everything in my box & can‘t wait to immerse myself in Italy! I plan to read the tagged book 1st but look forward to them all! The necklace is gorgeous & the postcards, travel journal and bookmarks in Italian are sure to come in handy. And the precious little chicken pitcher 🥰 Everything was wrapped so beautifully, this #staycationintimeswap has made my month! Thanks for organizing @Chrissyreadit

A book with color illustrations & typesetting is such a little luxury. This is a memoir about the pursuit of the story behind some old European roses...and the art is ridiculously charming. it's priced the same as any other hardcover, which makes me wonder: why can't every book look like this?

Reviewsbylola So gorgeous! 9y
CherylDeFranceschi Beautiful! 9y
Imagineannie Beautiful, and pushes all my vintage buttons even though it says its pub date was 2013. 9y
LauraBrook Gorgeous! Sounds/looks like Vivian Swift's work, which ticked all the same boxes for me. Off to order this beauty! 9y
Indygardener One of my favorites 9y

Interesting from a historical perspective, also if you love garden ending you might like it.
