From Knopf Iris Garden, 1965: BLUE REJOICE 36" M, Dubes-Young'62. Here is a new truly light blue self that has charm and personality. It is a wonderfully formed flower with ruffling on both S. and F. Gold beard. 10.00 |
BLUE REJOICE (Dubes-Young '62) A big ruffled flower with style and grace. Its pure clear light blue color is set off by its golden beard. Good branching, fine substance, and a good performer here in the Carolinas, as it is in its northwest Iowa home. [Ralph and Helen Lewis, “Iris from the Carolinas to Iowa and Ohio,” Bulletin of the American Iris Society, No. 179 (October 1965): 88.] |
