From Rainbow Hybridizing Gardens catalog 1963: SNOWY REDBEARD (Austin '61) E-38". Technically not a fancier's Iris but … for sheer beauty & sharp color contrast, it surpasses most notable named varieties as Frost and Flame & Snowfire. The beard of Snowy Redbeard is a brighter, redder tangerine, is heavier & longer, & extends farther down on the falls, for a very startling effect. Pollen profuse. Cloudcap X Palomino. Regularly $3.00; on $10 order $1.85; on $25 order $1.25; 3 for $3.40; 10 for $10.20. |
