TOKEN - Many qualified critics have seen this new iris and the usual pronouncement is "a glorified Mary Geddes". Carrying much of the same salmony-orange-brown blended effect of this well known variety, TOKEN is a far finer individual flower — larger, of better form, and with smoothly colored falls. Standards are old gold flushed rose, falls rosy brown-red, with very little haft venation. It does not fade and is a husky grower, 38 inches tall., with blooms having a 7-inch spread. Each $10.00. [Cooley's catalog, 1939]
