INTERESTING INFO:
From the 2016 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Mini Catalog: Impeccable form. A gentle melding of lavender and pale apricot. Like a soft caress, Enraptured has restrained magnetism. Its initial act presents dusky lavender standards, energized by chestnut highlighting. Feathery whispers of lilac touch up all but the center of the saffron-buff falls. Sunshine subsequently transforms this spellbinder into a more inviting apparition. Colors soften, become warmer. Accentuating the complimentary colors are the enticing orange beards. The pleasure heightens in the contrast of both versions on a stem. Enraptured produces large flowers, on well-branched stems, with 8 buds per stalk. Dare yourself to resist this breathtaking novelty.
