The American Iris Society has this year established 
“The Iris Hall of Fame.” Iris may attain Tiis@aies 
honor only by being voted the favorite Iris of the year 
or by being one of the Hundred favorites over a period 
of ten years. Being older Iris, they are not expensive 
and so are a splendid group for beginners in Iris to 
acquire as a start.
