Double Eagle (Samuelson 1954)—The most sensational 
Iris ever introduced. The first real break in bearded 
Iris of all time. This amazing Iris throws up unusually 
heavy, well branched 40” stems carrying huge buds. 
The first of these open with the conventional three 
standards and three falls but the later buds toss aside 
all convention and open to mammoth flowers having 
from six to 12 standards most beautifully ruffled and 
waved. Unusually heavy substance hold these lovely 
standards slightly apart, permitting the startling dou- 
ble effect to be fully apparent even from a distance. 
Through some lucky chance this new double Iris is a 
fine coppery chartreuse, a color that all Iris lovers are 
seeking. It is also among the strongest growers we 
have seen and thoroughly hardy even in our rigorous 
northern climate. It is not a freak that will revert to a 
single type but the first really double Iris to be offered 
anywhere. See color cut on outside Back Cover.
