INTERESTING INFO:
From the 1951 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Catalog: The self-colored orchid-pink might be described as a glorified Dreamcastle, being pinker, larger and lighter. A supremely beautiful Iris whose exquisite standards are domed with utmost circumspection, whose broad falls have a classic perfection in form. A patrician beauty: chaste and serene. Unsurpassed in the carrying power of it limpid pink color.
