INTERESTING INFO: From the 1968 Schreiner Iris Lover's Catalog: A luscious, appealing blend of delicate light russet tan to liquescent, flowing honey-peach. Unexcelled in form with just a little wriglle of a ruffle to its well spaced blooms. The plant is vigorous, producing rigid, nicely branched stes of exhibition quality with regularity. A most dependable performer combining the desirable features of its illustrious parents Amethyst Flame, Pretty Carol, Pathfinder and Inca Chief.
