ALLINE ROGERS. Form of flower resembles Cascade Splendor, one of its parents. Color inclines more to pink or rose, with a suggestion of ashes of roses in its cast. Gold at haft. Falls quite wide and flat, standards upright and closed. Thirty-four inches tall. Named after the wife of the president of the American Iris Society. Originated by Kleinsorge in 1950. A fine Iris in every way. $3.00. (Iris Test Garden, 1955). |
"Alline Rogers, on a one-year plant, had a large but somewhat coarsely textured flower which made less appeal to me than its parent, Cascade Splendor—one of my favorites. If it performs as well when established, I may change my mind." (Dolman, 1951). |
