"It is often remarked that native plants are coarse. How humiliating to hear an American speak so of plants with which the Great Master has decorated his land. To me no plant is more refined than that which belongs.....To try to force plants to grow in soil and climate unfitted for them and against nature's methods will sooner or later spell ruin. Besides, such a method tends to make the world commonplace and to destroy the ability to unfold an interesting and beautiful landscape out of home environments. "
- Jens Jensen, Siftings, 1939
