ARBUTUS (Loth. '33) Pinkish-lavender, shading to light yellow, the pink tones predominating. The finish is smooth and lustrous, and the substance is heavy enough to prove weather-resistant. We found it a very lovely, large, interesting iris. 36". H.M. A.I.S. '32........$2.00 [<Irises That Are Growing Over-the-Garden-Wall catalog Summer 1935/Spring 1936]
