"Test Garden: The testing section holds several concurrent independent trial programs, each one spanning two years. • American Rose Society Award of Excellence Miniature Trials (AOE): Established in 1975, this garden is one of only six testing grounds of miniflora and miniature roses for the American Rose Society (ARS) miniature rose test program. • American Garden Rose Selection (AGRS): This garden is one of 12 sites in the United States used for new rose testing. This national rose evaluation system recognizes roses on several attributes including vigor, foliage proportion, plant habit, flowering effect and bloom abundance, rebloom habit, bloom form, aging quality, fragrance, and weather hardiness. No spraying occurs on these roses." www.portlandoregon.gov

"The International Rose Test Garden is a rose garden in Washington Park in Portland, Oregon, United States. There are over 10,000 rose bushes of approximately 650 varieties. The roses bloom from April through October with the peak coming in June, depending on the weather. New rose cultivars are continually sent to the garden from many parts of the world and are evaluated on several characteristics, including disease resistance, bloom formation, color, and fragrance. It is the oldest continuously operating public rose test garden in the United States and exemplifies Portland's nickname, "City of Roses". The garden draws an estimated 700,000 visitors annually." wiki
