ORIGINATOR: Schreiner INTRODUCED: 1975 CLASS: Tall Bearded HEIGHT: 39" BLOOM SEASON: Early to Mid DESCRIPTION: Clear light silvery cream-yellow with contrasting intense lilac-lavender F.; lemon yellow beard. Lilac Champagne X unknown. PARENTAGE: Lilac Champagne X unknown AWARDS: None INTERESTING INFO: From the 1975 Schreiner's Iris Lovers Catalog: We have here a full-blown, expansively large, broad, yet delicately beautiful Iris. Waxen substance and finish. This all season, extremely long flowering, lavish pearly lavender and silvery cream, its twirled and ruffly petals, its standards and falls so generously full and a daring and sophisticated color, is fascinating! It harkens back to Lilac Champagne, only much broader, larger and a more intensely saturated color. Imposingly handsome stiff sturdy stems with double socketed buds.
