To Celia and Arnold;
William A. Setchell, BREHM, '38 is available from Joe and Donna Spears
in Argyle Texas. The name of their operation is:
Argyle Acres,
910 Pioneer Circle East,
Argyle, TX 76226-6714.
They grow many historics and have been very influential in the
Dallas/Ft. worth area in promoting irises, particularly the older ones.
Their catalogue just arrived today, and "William" is in it. To receive
their catalogue send 2 first class stamps and your name and address.
They are now up to about 1300 varieties, although they only list about
400 in their catalogue.
Nancy
