INTERESTING INFO: From the 1987 Schreiner’s Iris Lovers Catalog: No other Iris can match Loyalist for the sheer vibrancy of its cerise claret color. Its well tailored blooms are both large and nicely ruffled. A very vigorous grower producing tall lush foliage and well branched stems with 6-7 buds. A loyalist is a person who is in support of a sovereign or an existing government. |
