INTERESTING INFO:
From the 1975 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Catalog: How we wish we could show this Iris to you in third dimension! There is a quality about this lovely one. We despair in the effort to convey its charm, intrinsic beauty and uniqueness. A large bloom with an interesting appliqué of what seems to be gold leaf of gilt, enameled gilt gold concentrated along the midrib paling to a creamy white, edged with ruffling. The colors are beautifully applied, singularly different from any other yellow variety. Multiply our feeble effort to portray this beauty as shown in our photo above and you will just begin to envision what a lovely flower this is. Has three branches with 5 to 6 buds per stem.
