| From AIS Bulletin #117, April 1950. Introducing BELLERIVE (Benson-1950) A huge ruffled cream with splendid form and poise, possessing a smooth,glistening sheen. Domed standards, semi-flaring falls, strong 42-inch stalks. A vigorous grower. $10.00. Syllmar Gardens 1950. ||
| "Bellerive, a 1950 introduction from Clifford Benson, was about the loveliest deep cream I ever saw. Somewhat darker than [[TbAthruE.TbDesertSong]['Desert Song']], it had a thickness of petal which made the color appear deeper. If it is a good doer, it will be very popular." Mrs. Ed Conrad (Idaho), “Way Beyond the Hills of Idaho” The Bulletin of the American Iris Society, No. 121, (April 1951): 35. |
