From Maple Valley Gardens catalog, 1952: ROSE OF PICARDY, Whiting 1952. No. 467 (GARDEN GLORY & ROCKET). Late, 30 inches. A warm, rosy red iris that blooms so late that few visitors have seen it. A blended self of rose petal and rose of Picardy (Dictionary of Color) it is a most welcome sight after other favorites are gone. A deep yellow heard and haft enliven its garden effect. The flowers are medium large, very full fashioned, delightfully curled and of good substance. The strong, hardy plants bloom freely with moderately branched stalks. 5.00. |
