ORIGINATOR: Schreiner INTRODUCED: 1973 CLASS: Tall Bearded HEIGHT: 34" BLOOM SEASON: Mid to Late DESCRIPTION: Uniform ginger brown with red copper cast, slight intensification of old copper shadings toward haft; ruffled. PARENTAGE: S 781-C: (Olympic Torch x Dark Chocolate) X Applejack AWARDS: None INTERESTING INFO: From the 1979 Schreiner’s Iris Lovers Catalog: A fascinating handsome combination of varying shades of ginger brown with a red cast coupled with a coppery underlay. An extremely uniform self, the beard continues the same coloring as the flower. A magnetic blending of unusual shadings and shining like a piece of highly polished copper.
