| COPPER PINK (Kellogg, 1941): Just why they called this iris pink is more than I can see. It looks dark red to me-if it was correctly labeled. Clevenger. My choice of the pink blends. On first opening it is brilliant, by the third day, though much lighter, is still very attractive. An excellent grower, giving fine increase. Very early. Faults are a tendency to throw crooked bloom stalks and a short blooming period. Sanford. Planted in part shade, the color was rich and bloom lasted. A good iris. Calif.
