From Windwood Gardens catalog, 2008: CURRIER (2004) VE-E. tet. Seedling 97B IA4. Sib to Bright and Beautiful. One of the earliest Siberians to bloom for us (except for I. typhifolia crosses), Currier is a real eyecatcher. The ground color is a quite deep shade of red-violet, but what catches the eye from a distance is the contrast with a very large pure white blaze. There is a delicate white rim on falls which are flaring and gently ruffled. The flower stalks are tall and held well above the spear-like foliage to provide an outstanding clump structure. There are 1-2 branches and 3-4 buds. $20.00
