ELOISE LAPHAM. This delightful pink iris was discovered upon the occasion of my first visit to Elkhart in 1930. The color is indescribably soft and smooth, an even tone of delicate flesh pink, and the substance is like kid. The flower itself is about the size and shape of MIDGARD, and of medium height. As a clump in Mr. Lapham 's garden it drew instant attention, and its rapid increase and freedom of bloom will be sure to make it a great favorite. Each $10.00; three for $25.00 [Cooley's Wholesale pricelist, 1932].
