From Fairmount Gardens, 1958: CONCORD TOWN (Buttrick 1958) M. L. This iris was named for the town of Concord, Massachusetts and is a delightful tribute to the historic town. Majestic in form this very handsome white has received most enthusiastic comments from all iris Judges and last year created a sensation with its great purity of color and beautiful form. The broad full blooms have perfectly domed standards and wide flaring falls that are distinctly ruffled at the hafts and have a fascinating light chartreuse influence around the pale yellow beard. Exceptionally well formed the flowers have such heavy substance that they remain in perfect condition during strong wind and rain. Sturdy stalks and excellent branching.The Citadel x (The Admiral x Violet Symphony) x Chivalry) x (Snow Flurry x Ave Maria) x Cloud Castle). H. C., A. I. S.1957. 36 in. $20.00
