Caitlin Kittredge is the author of the “Iron Codex” trilogy, a Lovecraftian steampunk adventure.

Show a loved one just how special they are by naming a unique pack of rose seeds after them that they can grow into a beautiful bush and cherish forever. Sticking your arm out of the car window at the traffic lights and buying a dying bunch of GM pumped roses from an old bucket is just so not a romantic gesture. Having a Rose named after your amour however is about as romantic as it gets. This boxed Name A Rose kit comes with everything you need to name a rose. The kit includes a packet of unique and unnamed rose seeds a registration card a growing guide and a Name a Rose certificate to make your new rose official. Simply fill in the enclosed registration card (adding the name of the person to be immortalised) and the name will be registered on the Name A Rose database and submitted to the British Library. Once registered you will also be sent an A4 certificate with the name of the rose printed on it. With a little luck (if you read the rose growing guide) you will soon be the owner of a bunch of roses that no-one else on the entire planet could possibly have grown. Now isn’t that a load more romantic than a sad old bunch of wilters? Pack Contents: Presentation Tin Introduction Letter Registration Card – complete and return to register your rose name and receive your personalised certificate of registry Unique pack of unnamed rose seeds with unique database number How to grow and care for your rose booklet – including tips from planting to bush care With proper care you should be the proud owner of several healthy beautiful roses A3 double sided rose calendar poster History of the rose Suitable for ages 14+ Your rose’s name will be entered into the International Rose Naming Registry which is periodically submitted to the British Library Size: Dimensions: 23.5 x 18.5 x 2.5cm Please note: Do not attempt to eat this product you will regret it!
