INTERESTING INFO:
From the 1986 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Catalog: Ready for a raid into new color horizons, this distinctive flower stands out in any planting; even among the best red iris. The enchanting coloring is a bewitching blend of violet, fuchsia and damask red. The red tones are further accented by the prominent golden beard. An added extra touch - remarkable 6" florets bloom early and last throughout the season.
