From AIS Bulletin #249 April 1983 Introducing FLAMING VICTORY (Weiler '83) 90 cm (35"). A modern iris in an elusive color. Sporting flaming orange-red beards on sparkling medium yellow petals, the bloom is so gracefully formed and softly ruffled that appearance belies the heavy substance. Stalks with 3 branches and terminal produce a minimum of 7 flowers. Very rapid increase. E-M. Fertile. Very popular at the Denver convention under #78-19-2: Temple Gold X ((((Glittering Gold x Orange Crush) x (Ballerina x Orange Crush)) x New Moon) x (White King x New Moon)). HC 1982. $25.00. |
