From Tell’s Gardens catalog, 1962: HIGHLAND CASCADE (H. Senior Fothergill, England) Midseason-Late 40". (High Seas) X 206 (Snow Flurry x Blue Ensign) x (Pegasus). Gorgeous white white with self beard and lovely flowing lines and ruffling one might expect from the double Snow Flurry blood. This could produce whites with blue beards and I should like to see it crossed with Marriott, Top Of The World and Soft Sky toward this goal and to Swan Ballet for more good blues and whites. Pictured opposite page 32 in The British Iris Society yearbook, 1961. Selected for Trial at Wisley, 1961. $25.00 |
