ORIGINATOR: Schreiner INTRODUCED: 1960 CLASS: Tall Bearded HEIGHT: 34" BLOOM SEASON: Mid to Late DESCRIPTION: Mahogany crimson-red self, unveined. PARENTAGE: Trim x Caldron AWARDS: HM'60 INTERESTING INFO: From the 1961 Schreiner's Iris Lovers Catalog: Progress among the reds has been slow. But here is a mahogany-crimson that excels all other reds in velvetiness. It has a touch of ruffling also, not heretofore seen in reds. Notice the broad, quiet haft and gold beard, the glistening plushy sheen. A truly luxurious foreground Iris that will be appreciated by connoisseurs of form and style.
