From Melrose Gardens catalog, 1957: RUFFLED GOLD (Fred Taylor '57) SPURIA IRIS. Mr. Taylor has bred and registered more spurias than any other breeder, but he has never introduced one. We finally got permission to introduce two of his exceptionally fine creations. PEACHES AND CREAM will come out next year. This year we are pleased to bring you RUFFFLED GOLD and we believe it is a true charmer and fills a gap in the present list of spuria iris. This one is not tall, about 36", which we find an interesting size for spurias and should be developed further by breeders, to go with the much taller varieties. The flowers of this one are almost as big as those of WADI ZEM ZEM and are a bright medium yellow. Very broad flowers that are nicely ruffled. $10.00
