The second to be registered was AMBER SHADOW, 12 inches tall, in a pale flesh-pink tone with a deep beige spot and wide border, beard white tipped orange, carrying the widest petals of all. Being slower of increase, it will probably not be introduced until 1968. AMBER SHADOW was named by our horse-loving friend, Jim Crist of Franklin. [Earl R. Roberts, âA New Color Class in Medians,â The Bulletin of the American Iris Society, No. 184 (January 1967): 48.]
