Dr. A. S. Thomas.  Yellow Roses.
Lady Mandeville is much more orange than others mentioned. At its best it is a very beautiful rose but too many of the flowers are fleeting in form, insufficiently pointed as judged by modern standards, and are carried on very short stems. The bronze foliage is an added attraction.

Lady Mandeville. Last but not least. Exhibition fans should applaud this selection as it is one of the most perfect things grown - and one of the most lovely to boot. It is exceedingly healthy and growth is very good. Its colouring, deep gold, flushed orange and veined crimson, is just sheer delight to the eye. Visitors to my garden stand breathless before its beauty. Its foliage is perfection and it is almost an ever-green.

p114.  Mr. F. Mason, Feilding, New Zealand. Six Indispensables
Lady Mandeville with its deep yellow blooms and dark foliage is another rose that I would put in this class. It is probably the earliest to bloom and does not mind the wind or rain. I consider I get more perfect blooms per plant from this than from any oher.  As soon as one lot is over another is ready to take its place.

Lady Mandeville, which is a dwarf variety, can in our experience be a complete failure if cut too hard. By and large we have been forced to the conclusion that it is not necessary to remove vigorous, well ripened wood in order to obtain sound growth and even exhibition blooms. In fact, unnecessary pruning must have a dwarfing effect on a bush, as witness the extreme case of Japanese dwarfed trees in pots.

p21.  S. H. Bidwell.  In Mr and Mrs Frank Penn's garden, Auckland, N.Z. 
The Doctor and Lady Mandeville are two varieties that have not given universal satisfaction in Auckland, yet Mr. Penn has fine bushes of these, over four feet high; budded by himself.

p91.  Mr. S. J. Bisdee.  Tasmanian Notes
Lady Mandeville has also excelled itself with superb blooms. What a delight this thing is! I want more and more plants of it; my friends have been in raptures over it.

Mr. S. J. Bisdee. Tasmanian Rose Notes. 
Lady Mandeville, close by, is improving all the time and gave me superb blooms and plenty of them, and almost every one a champion. With its superb foliage it should be ideal for bedding.

'Lady Mandeville'. The colour is deep cadmium yellow, flushed orange with an Indian yellow base, and in the bud stage the outside of the petals is flushed and veined Lincoln red. The flowers are large and full, with a slightly fruity perfume. Mildew proof.
Book  (1944)  
 
p64.  Anthony Poulsen.  Roses in Canterbury, N.Z. 
Of the new varieties, Lady Mandeville has proved the best. I liked the healthy look about the foliage right through the dry period, and this autumn the blooms have been magnificent.

p86.  Mr. S. J. Bisdee.  Roses in Tasmania
Lady Mandeville: A most beautiful flower of exhibition form; a deep yellow-veined Lincoln-red. Foliage is superb and almost ever-green. A most promising thing.
Book  (1943)  
 
p60.  Frank Mason. New Zealand
Lady Mandeville has improved considerably on its performance of last year. I consider this one of the finest Roses grown. Several times this season I have seen perfect blooms without a vestige of any other colour except yellow, and yet the next one will be distinctly marked. It is a free bloomer, and will make a beautiful bedding Rose.

p72.  J. Poulsen, Christchurch, NZ.  Southland Roses.
I have been able to test a few Roses that I have not previously grown. Lady Mandeville grew well and produced most excellent blooms of good shape and colour, and was greatly admired by all who saw it. Lady Mandeville seems to have good show possibilities and appears to be one of the best that McGredy's have given us.

p83.  Mr. S. J. Bisdee.  Tasmanian Roses. 
Lady Mandeville: Made fair growth with beautiful, healthy foliage, while blooms gave every indication of being a very delightful combination of deep yellow veined Lincoln red.
