DEPUTE NOMBLOT Bulletin de la Société Nationale d'Horticulture de France, 1930, 5e série, Tome III, . The world's greatest iris. Blooming for the first time in America during the season of 1930, it almost bowled over all who saw it. During the past season it has proven worthy of first impressions, and from England and France, as well as from all sections of this country, come songs of praise for this imposing giant of the race. Standards light glowing rosy-purple, overlaid bronzy-gold. Falls very wide, spreading, purplish garnet-red, shading to lighter rosy-bronze at the edge. Deep orange beard. Over four feet tall, wonderfully well branched. DEPUTE NOMBLOT received a certificate of merit in 1929 at the Paris show, and in 1930 was awarded the Dykes medal. Each $20.00; three for $50.00 p. 303[Cooley's Wholesale pricelist, 1932]. Revue Horticole, 1937, Nouvelle série, Tome XXV, p. 527. |
Depute Nomblot: (Cayeux). A classic bloom—standard for form—rich—weak stalked; otherwise faultless. [Belsley, Ray J., Varietal Comments. Bulletin of the American Iris Society 74 (July 1939), 16.] |
