HOW TO GROW ROSES 



Synonymous Roses 

 Some roses have acquired new names that seem to be an 

 improvement; for example, Dutch Beauty in place of 

 Veluwezoom. Another case is Mme. Norbert Levavasseur; 

 when once planted and thoroughly domesticated, she 

 answers to the name of Red Baby Rambler. But, if you 

 wish to order Red Baby Rambler, remember there are nearly 

 half a dozen roses so called; so, if you want to be certain, 

 refer to the following list for guidance. Renaming a rose 

 with intent to deceive has come to be regarded by rosarians 

 as a crime. When a second name is adopted for the sake of 

 euphony, the original name should be carried in parentheses.
