Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Worlds Finest Irises, 1929-1930 In addition to the varieties listed, I have hundreds of other varieties that are not being listed this year for various reasons. Many of them are imported varieties that are being grown under Government Permit and cannot be sold until they are released for distribution by the United States Department of Agriculture; others are still under test, and of others my stock. Is too small to justify listing them this year, although quotations can be made on request. Almost every choice Iris is grown here. If I knew of a fine variety that is not included in my collection I would secure it. The figures given immediately after the name of a variety represent the recent ratings given by the American Iris Society, the first figure being the Exhibition Rating, or the rating as an exhibition flower; the second figure being the Garden Rating, or the rating for its landscape or garden qualities. Those not rated are mostly rare or recently introduced varieties that were not sufficiently well known by the jurors to rate them. You will notice the entire absence of poorly rated varieties in my collection. In the American Iris Society ratings, 100 is considered perfect (no variety is ever voted perfect, as room must always be left for improvement). The official ratings are as follows.
