Speaking of pinks (on iris-photos), I've been going thru some old notes
trying to get ready for pollen daubing season, seeing if there are some
older strong performers I want to dig out of the weeds...

SYMPHONETTE was a reliable performer here for years before it
disappeared under fescue grass (pre-retirement).

SYMPHONETTE (L. Noyd, R '68). N67-57-23. TB, 34", M-L,, RV1L. Light rose
self with orchid in center of F; tangerine beard; slightly lacy S and
styles. Debby Rairdon X Kingdom. HC '67. Noyd '69.

It shows up in pedigrees of several pink, orange, peach, apricot
descendants, most recently COLORADO WINTER MORNING (Roy Krug by Glenn
Stoneking-Jones, R. 1998). Sdlg. CIR6-RK78-2. TB, 28" (71 cm), ML. "S.
white; style arms apricot; F. peach; beards peach to apricot, hairs
tipped orange; slight sweet fragrance. Buffy X Symphonette. Orin 1999."

Any of you have any experience with crosses involving SYMPHONETTE or its
descendants?
