Excerpt from Gardening in Egypt: A Handbook of Gardening for Lower Egypt
"It is both the duty and interest of every owner and cultivator of the soil to study the best means of rendering that soil subservient to his own and the general wants of the community; and he who introduces a new and useful Seed, Plant, or Shrub into his district, is a blessing and honour to his country." - Sir J. Sinclair.
