From Milliken Iris Gardens catalog, 1952: MRS. DOUGLAS PATTISON (Craig) Named for Mrs. Pattison, of Azure Sky fame, this beautiful iris had to be most outstanding- and so it is. The flowers are handsomely formed; the standards are domed and closed, and the falls ripple and flare beautifully-the color of the entire flower is the bluest of cornflower-blue, with no markings to mar the haft. Midseason. 3 ft. $15.00.
