INTERESTING INFO:
From the 1989 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Catalog: What a magnificent display! You too will share our unqualified enthusiasm for this exquistiely formed lustrous raspberry-rose masterpiece. Note how the white zonal spot at the centers of the falls shines like searchlight. Finely sculpted flowers combine perfect rufling and lace with heavy substance. the extra strong stems present four wide branches with a liberal 9-14 buds per stem.
