A cross-bred Pallida and one of exceptional beauty; gigantic flowers borne on stiff branching stems over 4ft. high; S broad and incurved, soft lavender-blue overlaid yellow; F dark mauve, conspicuous yellow beard. One of my best varieties. Midseason. 30/- each.
From Bonnewitz catalog, 1927: MARJORIE TINLEY (Perry). S. and F. both soft lavender- blue with light yellow beard. Bloom of good size with an attractive light on the beard and base of the falls. We have found many American Iris lovers interested in this new variety $6.00.
