MILADY, a Moldovan production has been thoroughly tested here and throughout the country. Without question, it is the deepest pink color seen in iris to date. It is important to note also, MILADY is equally pink in the South and far West. [“A Preview of the 1966 Introductions from Moldovan’s Gardens,” Advertisement.
