INTERESTING INFO: From the 1988 Schreiner's Iris Lovers Catalog: Surprise - what a color combination! Secret Melody's arched standards are a pure smooth apricot color. Heavy raspberry rose plicata markings emboss the light apricot falls. This streaky marbled application of rosy tones presents a fine color contrast. From the cross of Capricious x Queen in Calico. A hit parader with a rhythm all its own. Three branches with 6-7 buds. Seedling #V 527-1. $35.00
