INTERESTING INFO: From the 1977 Schreiner's Iris Lovers Catalogue: There may be a profusion of pinks, but Fashionable Pink merits its distinctive place. First because it is a deeper(not a pale) pink and secondly because its tonal quality is on the pure pink side (not salmony shade). Its beautifully formed petals are ruffled and fluted; also well substanced. Standards are a shade or two deeper. This utterly charming deeper full toned pink ranks as one of the very best.
