The Garden Magazine, March, 1923 
The garden roses selected by many amateur 
growers, guided solely by enticing catalogue 
descriptions, are often about as ridiculous as 
bacon and eggs would be at a banquet. Many 
beautiful roses, particularly some Euro¬ 
pean varieties, are utterly unsuited to the 
average American Garden. If you must 
have abundance of roses, do so by all 
means, but limit your varieties to from io 
to 20 kinds.
