INTERESTING INFO: From the 1974 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Catalog: Here is a man's iris - the deep toned, dusky, very smooth puple blooms seem to have a special appeal to men! All who see this extra broad, full petaled iris are drawn to this unique beauty. A single petal measures 5" in length and 4" in breadth - so full the falls literally touch. The outstanding velour-like texture of the thick petals is of unexcelled richness. Excellent growth habits on a stiff, well branched stem with 8 to 10 buds. A stunner with remarkable uniformity of color - large as life - a dark beauty. DARK TRIUMPH is a "must."
