From Fairmount Gardens catalog, 1965: ZIG ZAG CROWN (Von Martin 1965) M. This iris always draws the attention of garden visitors, not only for its beauty but for its arrangement of color. The center portion of each standard and fall is a clear medium yellow with a border around each segment of white that is so heavily ruffled that it gives the effect of exquisite lacing on these edges. 24 in. $20.00
