FAIR ELAINE (Mitchell). A two-toned yel- 
low that is in a class by itself. One of the 
best English authorities says: “This I rec- 
ommend to be the finest yellow I have yet 
seen, because it approaches a bi-color. 
The standards are palest primrose ap- 
proaching white, the falls golden yellow 
paling at the base and the beard is bright 
orange. The form is very good and the 
stems are well branched. It is an iris 
which stands out from afar, and is in my 
opinion of greater garden value as a gar- 
den iris than the self yellows, however 
good their color may be.’”’ Originally sold
