ORIGINATOR: Schreiner INTRODUCED: 1981 CLASS: Tall Bearded HEIGHT: 35" BLOOM SEASON: Early to Mid DESCRIPTION: S. peachy apricot; F. slightly deeper, center frosted clear white; bright tangerine beard. PARENTAGE: Golden Promenade X Charmaine AWARDS: HM'83, AM'85 INTERESTING INFO: From the 1981 Schreiner’s Iris Lovers Catalog: We are groping for words to properly describe the ecstatic coloring of this sparkling orange-sherbet Iris. The standards and edges of this airily fluted flower are a luscious shade of peachy apricot. Yet towards the center of each fall one finds a frosted clean white. This contrasts nicely against the bright tangerine beard. The gorgeously colored florets are borne on wide branched stems – most double socketed, one even triple socketed! Has 8 to 9 buds on three branches. Not a fast grower.
