From Sidney Conger Louisiana Iris catalog, 1951: LOUISE AUSTIN (G. Arceneaux). A hybrid of I. fulva and I. foliosa. It displays the floriferousness of each. Where well grown, it has five bloom axils and true lateral branching. Seldom is there a plant that does not bloom three to a stem at one time. This low growing variety is best near the edge of a bed, or used as a border. 4-1/2" flowers on an 18" stem. $.50. |
