From AIS Bulletin #248 January 1983 Introducing ON DEMAND (H. Nichols '83) IB, 17", #8292A, M-L, & RE. This lovely iris, first bloomed in September of 1981, six months after coming up from seed. It bloomed again in April of 1982 and repeated bloom in June through October of 1982. This jewel will probably be an ever bloomer in a very warm climate. It has ruffled ivory blended beige standards with darker edges; tailored ivory falls with deeper yellow-beige hafts and yellow and white beards. Fertility untested. A rapid increaser. From two great IB parents: (Shampoo X Pioneer Spirit). $12.50. Hillcrest Iris Gardens. |
