From Sidney Conger Louisiana Iris catalog, 1951: CADDO. (Trichel, '50). H.M., A.I.S.,'50, M. S.D. Award '50. This award winning iris deserves the attention. The brilliant red-bronze or deep burgundy coloring of the well-formed flowers is contrasted by large, circular signal patches of bright gold. The sepals are orbicular and reflex gracefully. Hardy in New England and increases rapidly. 30" to 36". $7.50.
