From AIS Bulletin #181 April 1966. Introducing ORANGE TRIUMPH (Marsh '66) VL, 30-36", Sdlg. 62-4. (Sib to PRAIRIE BLAZE x apricot sdlg.) X PRAIRIE BLAZE. ORANGE TRIUMPH, the big orange seedling admired by so many at the 1964 convention in Chicago, scored a HC in 1963, 1964, and again in 1965. A brilliant, perfectly clean, ruffled and fluted flower, which according to the color chart is a Spanish-orange self (Wilson 010/2). The nicely ruffled, arched standards occasionally open, and the very wide, ruffled falls are nearly horizontal. ORANGE TRIUMPH has a fine deep orange color that does not fade as most other oranges do. It is a good grower and increaser, and blooms on the largest of its increases. It is unpredictable in height, varying from 30" to 36". When tall, it is beautifully branched, carrying 9 large flowers; when short, it is branched rather close. In spite of these shortcomings, ORANGE TRIUMPH is a magnificent garden iris, outshining most others in this class as attested by its immense popularity as a seedling. Fertile both ways. $25.00. James Marsh.
