INTERSTING INFO: From the 1958 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Catalog: For several years we have been testing this gargantuan, 8 inch, rosy colored Iris with a striking glow of dusted copper. Huge in size, rich in color, not exactly a light red and yet at the same time different from teh raspberry-rose flamingo type of rose colored Iris, this striking variety is a lovely garden subject. A descendant of Challenge and Merry Rose.
