From Maple Valley catalog 1939: SIGNAL FIRES (Egelberg 1939) M. 38 in. This is a lovely new iris that bloomed beautifully here last year and Mr. Egelberg is allowing us to help introduce it. The broad firm standards are pale smoke gray with a vinaceous flush. The falls are of deep red purple velvet, broad and flaring. The contrast in color is most charming and the iris is as pleasing as it is unusual. The colors are. clear and fine and the name most appropriate. The tall stalk has excellent branching and the plant has good growing and blooming habits. A flower that will be wanted by all who see it. $10.00.
