References:

For a garden that has multiple Dykes Medal winners in its history, it may seem crazy to name another iris as the summit of technical quality. Such an iris is MATINATA ('68, HM '69). This is an improved 'PRINCE INDIGO', about which the Schreiners already wrote, "If space limitations restricted one to growing only ten outstanding iris, one selection ought to be the finest deep violet." That one is now unquestionably MATINATA. Its color is officially bishop's purple rather than pansy violet, but the surface texture makes more difference than the change in hue. 'PRINCE INDIGO' is a short nap velvet, 'ROYAL TOUCH' is pure silk, and MATINATA is a silk taffeta that you can almost hear rustling in the breeze. And it stands up almost 40" in the breeze, large self-colored blooms, first class vigor, branching, and bud count. [H. M. Parker, “Thirteen Is a Lucky Number,” The Bulletin of the American Iris Society, No. 199 (October 1970): 50-51.]
