Thanks, Mike, Walter and Linda. You are right, I'm sure. Said friend's
list is names of everything he has, irises, daffodils and daylilies all
mixed up. I don't think Advent is an old iris; it's probably a daylily.
He doesn't have very many old ones, and is not keen on historics. I ran
some names past him and he is going to look them up in his other
database (with hybridizers).  Here are a few that COULD be historics,
but are probably daylilies; they were in the 1939 Check List, anyway;
let me know what you think:

Chinook
Dusty Rose
Camp Fire
King Alfred (daff?)
Merlin
Lucifer
Royal Standard
Sioux
Snowbound or Snow Bound
Sunset
Uncle Remus

Thanks much, Barb
