From AIS Bulletin #241 April 1981 Introducing SPECTACULAR BID (Don Denney, 1981). TB, M-L, 36". These large, ruffled, smooth red-black flowers with self beards are well displayed on stalks with 4 and 5-way branching. This outstanding branching produces up to 15 flowers over a long blooming season. It's the most spectacular branching we've seen-- remember when branching was a problem with reds? No more! SPECTACULAR BID'S hardiness and vigorous increase have proved their qualities in the deep South, in New England as well as here in California. A stalk carried from California to Tulsa was judged to be the best seedling at the 1980 National Iris Show at the Tulsa AIS Convention. It's sure to look better (fresh) in your garden. (MANUEL X ROYAL TRUMPETER). EC. '80, HC '80. $25.00. Cottage Gardens.
