CAPTAIN GALLANT (Schmelzer, '59) Each $20.00

 today's finest reds have told us, after seeing it, that it is 

 probably the finest red to date. The introducer calls it "the 

 red Iris that is red throughout, with no purple influence 

 and no haft markings." Huge in size and holds its color in 

 heat or wind. HM AIS. 1959.

 bloom. HM AIS, 1955; AM, 1958. See page 11.
