R. Marion Hatton.  An American Review of the New Roses.
Agnes Kruse, a cross of Herriot and Eblouissant, from Tantau, is a little Polyantha that has pleased me for the past four years. The flowers are perfectly formed, starry little Roses of velvety deep red, but the fragrance one would expect from such a bloom is weak. The plants are low but bushy, and are generous bloomers.
