Original Catalog Description 2017: 35", Midseason-Late, SA, LIMITED. How can one refer to this as a "novelty" when it is so ruffled and full and round? Alas if the big flounces would not qualify it as "novel" the color could: unusual reddish brown washed purple with bright violet-blue burst below fat gold beards that end in red-brown flounces with purple stems. Not the "usual" purple iris! $65.00
