INTERESTING INFO:
From the 1965 Bay View Gardens Catalog: This tall well-branched frosty blue-white makes a perfect show specimen and even a better parent. The progentior of a series of new and exciting iris. Passes on fine form, vigor, branching, self-beards, and distinct ruffling to its children. Producing interesting seedlings not only with blues and whites, but also in yellows, greens and muted blends. We have bloomed this iris for 8 years and have never been disappointed with it. Very vigorous.
