- Description or summary of the audiobook: Once upon a time-before the 1860s-people loved old roses like 'Pearl of Gold,' 'Marchionesse of Lorne,' or 'Autumn Damask.' Then along came the hybrid tea roses, which were easier to arrange, more dramatic, and longer-blooming, and the old roses were all but forgotten. Now the lovely, subtle-hued, richly perfumed old roses are making a comeback, thanks to the efforts of a stubborn band of eccentric characters who rescued them from back alleys, ramshackle cottages, and overgrown graveyards across the country. Thomas Christopher tells us the fascinating stories of the old roses-how they were created and made their way to America-and the unforgettable people who 'rustle' them from abandoned lots and secret gardens today, revelling in the mystery of an 'unknown yellow.'
