SUNNYSIDE GARDENS, NATICK, MASS. 
GLORIOLE —(Gage, 1933). Description by Mrs. 
Thomas Nesmith: “This Iris is the most out¬ 
standing of the new Irises of 1932. A light 
blue self overlaid with glistening white, the 
iridescence reminding one of the thick frost 
crystals found on window panes after a cold 
winter’s night. Might be described as an ice 
blue self. The flowers are exceedingly large, 
beautifully formed with slightly flaring falls and 
perfectly domed standards, the heavy substance, 
fine finish and texture of the flowers enable them 
to withstand wind, rain and heat. A wonderful 
flower of brilliant sheen and great beauty. The 
flower stalks are very tall and well branched, 
bearing many blooms, which last over a long 
period of time.” H. M., A. I. S., 1933. Height 
42 inches .$20.00
