Unbiased Opinions 



The following press notices were given without soli- 

 citation. 1 introduced Iris Lord of June 191 1. It is 

 a strong grower, in my garden 49 inches tall. 



Horticulture, June 1919 



"H. F. Chase, of Andover, Mass., exhibited a vase of Lord June 

 Iris which aroused the greatest enthusiasm among Iris lovers 

 present. Never, perhaps, have specimens as good as the vase 

 shown at this exhibit been seen anywhere." 



Florists Exchange, June 1919 



"H. F. Chase, of Andover, exhibited one of the finest things in 

 the exhibition: Iris pallida Lord of June. The specimen in- 

 dicated that this variety is among the finest of all bearded 

 Irises. It is a giant I. pallida dalmatica of a most pleasing color." 



Florists Exchange, June 1921 



"The vase of Lord June, shown by H. F. Chase, of Andover, 

 was pronounced by competent judges the best ever seen. The 

 color and size of the blooms and the length of stem, forty-nine 

 inches, certainly gave many an admirer the first impression of 

 what a well-grown Iris really does look like. This vase captured 

 a silver medal." 



Flower Grower, Belvidere, III., June 191 9 



"The first Annual Show of the Belvidere Iris Society, in co- 

 operation with The American Iris Society, was held in Belvidere 

 on May 27 and 28. 



Mr. Pattison won first prize for the best specimen stalk, with 

 a beautiful stalk of Lord of June, which was one of the most 

 admired blooms." 



Originator's Description: 



IRIS Lord of June (Yeld) 



The beautiful new Iris, Lord of June, is admitted by 

 those best competent to judge to be one of the finest 

 varieties yet introduced. Borne on strong spikes, 

 the exceedingly large flowers stand out boldly, the 

 eye resting with pleasure on the light blue and 

 purple shades relieved by an orange-coloured beard.
