(TB) 'San Gabriel'

1921, Dean

'San Gabriel' (Jennett Dean, 1921). TB. Early bloom season. Color Class-B1L. I. mesopotamica x Unknown.

SAN GABRIEL. A very large pinkish lavender of high excellence adding to its other merits the virtue of being early and long blooming. Well branched and very graceful. Contains half mesopotamica, and although some varieties having as much mesopotamica blood are hardy, San Gabriel is tender and does not winter well except in mild climates. Fragrant. 60-inch. 25c; 3 for 50c; 12 for $1.50. [Carl Salbach iris catalog, 1938]
