INTERSTING INFO:
From the 2014 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Catalog: With obvious influences from its progenitors, Dangerous Mood and Brazilian Holiday, the bright yang IS better together than the pitch black yin. This near-black amoena’s ‘star’, are the powerful, brooding falls. Expansive and rolling, they are broad at the haft and exude a real force. Even the beards are subdued. The white standards are subtly flooded with a purple and gold projection. Better Together features perfect form, 40 inch stalks, and vigorous growth.
