From Keith Keppel Iris catalog, 2017: BOONDOGGLE ML 26” Border Bearded (Brazilian Art sib X (Undercurrent x Parisian Dawn))#05-83A. Purists will say it should be smaller-flowered, but oh!, the beards....wide and solid paprika red....are excuse enough for its being. Safrano pink to peach buff standards. Falls with peach buff hafts merging to cream, then the remainder pale opera pink washed with light wistaria violet. Good grower, with 5-7 buds. $25.00. |
