Rajah Brooke Norton, 1945 From Cooley's Gardens catalog for 1949: "Rich topaz-yellow standards shot with bronze; the falls deep pigeon blood-red. Haft is solidly colored, clear into the throat, giving the flower an extra rich effect. Not brilliant and garish, Rajah Brooke is an Iris in luxurious, subdued hues remindful of an Oriental rug. HM 1946." (Matula X Garden Magic)
