INTERESTING INFO: From the 1947 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Catalog: Something new - a singularly different iris, white brushed blue. The color is brushed on as if with blue chalk rather than blended. The cream color radiates throughout the flower like the first gentle rays of the sun. Blooms are very large, most unusual and lovely. A real innovation in an original flower, different from any other iris.
