'Eleanor Roosevelt' (Hans Peter Sass, R. 1933). IB, Midseason bloom and rebloom.; Color Code-R1D. McDade, National, Quality 1933. Honorable Mention A.I.S. 1936; Award of Merit A.I.S. 1937.
From the Cooley's Gardens catalog for 1937: "Deep flourite purple self, with very rich falls. The opening flower is almost black, and the heavy blue beard tends to increase the depth of color. This is the leading fall-blooming iris in commerce today, because it increases very fast, is most reliable in flowering habit, and is one of the most beautiful irises in the garden regardless of its added value as a rebloomer."
