INTERESTING INFO:
From the 1976 Melrose Gardens Catalog: Primrose yellow with a jealousy-green cast over the falls.

From the 1979 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Catalog: The striking feature about Green Eyed Lady is its uniform primrose yellow shadings with a jealously-green overall cast. Here we ahve one of the cleanest of the greens. Closed upright standards; falls are semiflaring, well held and ruffled.
