<< I can recall on of the first Delaware Valley Iris Society meetings
I attended. The evenings activities progressed to the major feature, a
slide show. Midway through the presentation, Opal Brown's SEASIDE was
projected on the screen, but as a light rosy-lavender iris. This clashed
with any recollection of that lovely flax-blue bloom. >>
BOY, CAN I RELATE TO THIS!! When I received the recent years Cooleys
Iris Catalog, all the blues looked purple to me! I know my mom had one that
was
such a light pretty sky blue (when i was a kid) and that would've been in the
70's,
and I know it was more blue than any of those so it kind of threw me for a
loop thinking no one had those kind of blues anymore...but I did find better
ones at Shreiners so at the time I got the catalog, I though Cooleys just
didn't do good photography! A shame, as I would not get their catalog again
since the pictures seem way off to me.
