richness of color command the attention of every visitor.

burgundy-red plicata, both standards and falls heavily marked 
all over with dark wine-red, the ground color buff. Flowers are

tinctive iris of pale cameo pink shading into hafts of deeper 
rose and brilliantly intensified by a vivid red beard.

It is on the glowing red side, with the result it seems to spit fire 
from every corner of its petals. The standards are between 
Mars orange and burn sienna and the falls a very velvety gar- 
net red. The haft is clean and the deep orange beard adds brilli- 
ance to the flower. Midseason to late. 36 inches. Limited stock.
