INTERESTING INFO:
From the 1975 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Catalog: Truly one of the most beautiful and delightful cream colored Iris in existence. While growing this plant under observation, we listed it under the garden name "Top Cream" - clearly demonstrated it was just that. Every flower is handsomely sculptured, full, rounded, broad petaled standards and falls. Our pictures gives one an idea of the class of this gorgeous cream. Slightly richer jersey cream standards, the serenity of the flower is pleasantly carried forth by a total absence of any striation - purity, coolness, liquescence all describe this luxurious vision of loveliness. Individual stems do not produce as many buds, but the plant produced more than one stem per root; often 3 stems with 5 to 6 buds each, 3 branches.
