INTERESTING INFO: From the 1957 Schreiner’s Iris Lovers Catalog: This gracefully crinkled and ruffled lilac-orchid has the same bewitching charm possessed by the famous Carmela, only this time the face-like edging is in a pure orchid, a self with flowers displaying a silky-taffeta-like sheen that has a near silver glisten. A composed, charming, fresh toned Iris.
