INTERESTING INFO: From the 1977 Schreiner’s Iris Lovers Catalog: One of the rarer combinations of color. A vivid rose-plum with a glossy enamel sheen couples effectively with the contrasting white standards. What an effective color spot! Adds contrast and color variation to the garden, the spice and ginger to the Iris planting. Rich colored, pert flaring falls and pure white standards beckon one from a block away.
