HERMIT THRUSH is a beautiful, ruffled and flairing, medium brown. It is from the 
same cross that produced Inca Chief, has a much taller stalk, about 38 inches, and norm 
ally has three branches and a terminal. Usually about ten to twelve blossoms per stalk. 
The flowers are of extra heavy substance, with a heavy midrib two-thirds of the way 
up the standards. The falls are very broad and round, ruffled and rippled on the edge. 
The color is very smooth with a glistening finish. No haft markings. We found upon com 
parison that it was very near true brown. It was less red than Argus Pheasant and much 
deeper and brighter than Pretty Quadroon. 
Greatly admired in both Grant Mitsch's garden and our own and in our display at the 
195) Iris Show of the Greater Portland Iris Society. 
HERMIT THRUSH is in the test garden for the 1956 Nations] Meeting to be held in 
Pasadena, California.
