PARENTAGE: P 1004-B: (Toast an' Honey x Olympic Torch) X Applejack AWARDS: HM'72 INTERESTING INFO: From the 1977 Schreiner’s Iris Lovers Catalog: Beckoning one is this veritable neon rainbow with subtly blended tones of gilt gold, bronzy tan, peach pink and apricot, strikingly counter-pointed with a blue signal patch below the intense orange beard.
