From Bay View Gardens catalog,1967: MEDITATEj (Ghio '67) 36 inches. L. This regally serene iris from royal breeding has the form, branching, and growth habits to fulfill the fondest expectations. Classic modern form with the semi-flaring falls being extremely wide with corrugated ruffling; the standards are firmly held and are as ruffled as the falls. Wide branching with perfect placement will make Meditate a top show contender. The cool white color with just the subtlest tinting of blue makes this a distinctive tranquil beauty. There is an intensification of blue in the heart of the flower and the beard is in harmony. No. 63-102K: ((Pacific Panorama x By Request) X Frosted Starlight). $25.00 |
