INTERESTING INFO:
From the 1998 Schreiner’s Iris Lover’s Catalog: Both the daring color pattern and immense size of its seven-inch flowers promise a bombastic winner - fashionably bold. See the audaciously unique 1½ inch band of violet-purple around the edges of the falls - something absolutely new to the Iris world. Its standards are colored creamy peach and have finely serrated edges like crimped paper. Bright tangerine beards make this color carnival glow. For the collector looking for something novel and different.
