INTERESTING INFO:
From the 1976 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Catalog: Just when you think you've seen all the colors and Iris can be — a new shade appears. This is a different color, a self flower, a medley of rose and salmony copper that is competely intermingled. No other Iris in your garden will match it — one of nature's unique shades impossible to capture in photography. Unfortunately, in extreme hot weather it tends to pale — would that not have this flaw.
