INTERESTING INFO:
From the 1977 Hamner's Iris Garden Catalog: A neglecta with personality and masculine charm. Domed stands are lobelia blue, deepening to dark violet-blue along the midribs. The dark violet-blue falls are round and flaring. All petal parts are lightly ruffled. Self beard. A knock out!
