| 1939 Checklist citations: Flower Grower From Carl Salbach catalog, 1935: NARANJA (Mitchell 1935 ). "Brought the first offer while still in bud." A huge flower that is most remarkable for being the first large iris with a definite orange cast. Taller than Happy Days, with blooms almost as large and with all the attributes of form and habit necessary to rank this remarkable iris as a real sensation. Dominated by the orange coloring of the falls, which, matched to the Ridgway chart, is "Zinc orange" at the haft, with yellow markings in center, and remainder of falls "ochraceous orange." Standards bright empire yellow, with orange-yellow beard. 44". $25.00 26: 8: 358 Aug. 1939 (Illustration); Bull. A.I.S. 63:62 Oct. 1936; Bull. A.I.S. 66:104 Sept. 1937. |

| From Naranja: Schreiner's 1941(Mitchell). A real orange colored iris, blossom smaller than one might suppose, petals somewhat spotted-color effect in garden quite unusual. [Belsley, Ray J., Varietal Comments. : A new departure in color; a yellow with a distinct orangy overcast on the falls. The orange note is subdued rather than vivid and the blooms are a bit too broad amidships to represent the acme of grace and symmetry, but because of the unusual advance in color represented by this variety, it is one of the most talked about of recent introductions. We anticipate that it will become a very popular iris. Honorable Mention 1936; Award of Merit 1937. Salbach 1935 Bulletin of the American Iris Society 74 (July 1939), 18.] |
| Naranja From (Mitchell) was here and later I had the satisfaction of seeing it in two other gardens, always the same. It is a clear, well-proportioned yellow with a brownish overlay on the falls giving an orange effect. Form and substance good on a medium, well branched stalk. [Lucy W.

| NARANJA (Mitchell), a very Naranja (Mitchell) was here good clump of this and undoubtedly striking when seen later I had the satisfaction of seeing it in mass. My impression is two other gardens, always that the colour same. It is not so dark and a clear, well-proportioned yellow with a brownish overlay on the falls lack the giving an depth of orange colouring which was evident in my own garden last year. [G. L.
