From AIS Bulletin #281 April 1991 Introducing MAINSTAY-BB. One of our favorites, this iris is very lacy, short frilly, leathery and tough in weather-a mainstay. It is pale pink (38D), lighter in middle of the falls with a red beard (41B). Iris has continued to stay within its class. $25.00. Burch Iris Garden. |
