From Miission Bell Gardens catalog, 1962: MOLLIE EMMS (Hamblen) No. H7-103. Midseason to Late. 30 inches. Vivacious petunia purple (32/2); hafts and area surrounding the beard are lighter toned. A wide nasturtium red (14/1) beard adds excitement. Petals ruffled and laced; standards cupped, showing the lacy style crests; widely flared falls. Exceptional branching, many buds. The iris, Mollie Emms, seems to personify the charm and pixie-like personality of its namesake. (Fashion Show X Graduation Gift.) HC '60. Net 25.00.
