From Fairmount Gardens, 1958: GOLDEN CORONET 54-65A (Nesmith 1958) M. L. Beautiful in form and arrangement of color this white and gold iris has a real personality. The arched and firmly domed standards are clear white lightly ruffled at the edges. The white falls flare widely and are embellished with a broad smooth gold overlay on the upper portion that surrounds the rich gold beard. For comparison it can be visualized as a better Patrician for it has a smoother more mellow golden haft with larger flowers and much better height and branching. Firm substanced blooms on sturdy 3 way branching stalks. Warm praise has been given this iris by discriminating Iris Judges. (Helen McKenzie x Seedling 52-4A) x Patrician.37 in. $15.00
