PAINTED DOLL (D. J. Boen '64) M-VL 36 in. (Extravaganza) X (53-11: Gypsy x Great Lakes) Do you know the table iris Peacock's Eye? Here is a vastly improved version of this unusual and striking flower-a true novelty. The standards are blue-white, flushed pale yellow at base. Upper part of falls are dark red purple, lower part bright lavender, hafts brown with a few white reticulations, beard orange-yellow. Standards domed, falls medium-wide and semi-flaring. Has two or three branches with from eight to twelve buds.Throwing some red amoenas. Has pollen only occasionally and not easy to pod. #55-36. $15.00. (Tell's, 1964, p. 4).
 
Donald J. Boen of Walla Walla, Wash. sent his novelty PAINTED DOLL to Wilma Vallette who in turn sent it to me to guest. When this bloomed in the very late season I was taken with its similarity to that very old table iris Peacock's Eye, yet here was a standard T.B. and one to help close the season. Donald tells me he has produced a very good red amoena from its use as pod parent. Crossed with Melodrama or some of its seedlings (such as Gypsy Lullaby) is sure to give some unusual things. I am co-introducing this with Wilma Vallette. (Tell's, 1964, p 2).
