From Fairmount Gardens catalog, 1948: PENN CHARTER (H. F. Hall 1948) L. Yellow iris with flaring form are rare, but here is one, a brilliant yellow self of flaring form with glistening finish, and substance of vellum. The standards of aureolin yellow are broad, strong, and firmly domed. The almost horizontal falls are slightly ruffled at the tips, of the same color as the standards. Beard and styles same tone. Clarity of color and great garden value characterize this clean cut iris. Exceptionally heavy substanced flowers with 8 to 10 blooms on widely branched strong stalks. Last season during an excessive downpour of rain, it remained untouched. Vigorous growth, and clean foliage. 40 in. $20.00
