Autor David Ruston
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 apr 2011
This is the story of a man whose whole life has been intertwined with flowers. David Ruston was born in Renmark in South Australias Riverland and grew up on a fruit block, eventually becoming one of the worlds most respected Rosarians. David tells his fascinating tale in a modest and unassuming way. He has coupled this with photographs and descriptions of some of the flamboyant and unusual flower arrangements that he has made in most continents of the world, over a period of many years.

Recenzii

In 2007 David Rustons home town of Renmark in South Australia mooted the idea that a sculpture be erected in the town to honour his achievements and skills. As a result, a magnificent tribute to David was unveiled on October 16, 2010, by the President of the World Federation of Rose Societies, Sheenagh Harris, during Renmark Rose Week. Because of Davids knowledge and creativity, it seemed appropriate that he commit to paper some of the highlights of his life, with special reference to the arrangements he has made over the years in support of local, national and international communities and organisations. Thus A Life With Roses came into being. This book is a fascinating insight into the mind of a man whose lifes passion has been the love of flowers, and in particular the rose.
