From Iris City Gardens catalog 2016: ROOSTER (Betzer 2014) 29" E-M. 12.00. Light yellow standards with a slight claret streak thru the middle and lightly feathered edges. Style arms are claret with some yellow shading. Falls are yellow with rusty red veining and sometimes a full rusty red wash which seems to be dependent on the soil and climate of the season (all flowers on a plant are consistent over the bloom season). Very attractive in all its variations. Serrated claret edges and a yellow blotch overlaid with a light green steeple signal.
