From AIS Bulletin #221 April 1976 Introducing VIOLET FLOUNCE (Marsh '76). Sdlg. 71-43. TB, 34", M. (From two orchid sdlgs.) The stalks are strong and well branched, carrying up to ten well-spaced flowers with great substance that gives the plant a very long bloom period. The very large flowers are light violet-blue. The arched standards are closed at top and have heavy ruffling. The wide-hafted falls are flared to 45° and are heavily ruffled and fluted all around. The beard is white. It is a strong grower and a good increaser with clean blue-green foliage, and it is fertile both ways. Has received Ex. certificates the last three years at Northern Illinois Iris Society shows. $25.00. Marsh Gardens.
