From Melrose Gardens catalog, 1965: MY HEAVENLY DREAM (Violet Worley) 38" double. The color range of Japanese iris is not too wide, but variety of intriguing patterns and color application is endless. Here is a most interesting difference. Starting at the edges of the widely spread petals with rosy pink, the color gradually deepens to a velvety deep fuchsia rose around the bright yellow signals. Over this, veins of a deepened color are traced from the signal back to the edges of the petals. Styles self colored; petals arch outward and downward. $10.00
From Tempo Two AU catalog, 1974: MY HEAVENLY DREAM (Violet Worley '65 USA). Double Early-Mid. Huge 8" blooms give a color pattern of interesting difference. Starting at the edges the color is rosy pink gradually deepening to a velvety deep fuchsia rose around the bright gold signals. Over this, veins of deeper color are traced from the signals back to the petal edges. Styles are self coloured. Petals arch outward and downward. Tall 34". $5.00. HM '67.
