From AIS Bulletin #297 April 1995 Introducing TRIM THE VELVET - SIBERIAN. Schafer/Sacks (Seedling No. S86-8-2), 40", M. This rich blue-purple self was chosen Best Seedling at the 1993 Siberian Iris Convention in Michigan. The velvet-textured falls are delicately trimmed with white. The plant is vigorous and the tall stalks hold the many flowers (4 to 6 per stalk) high above the foliage. Each flower is 4-1/2" across with full, gently ruffled standards and falls and small, neat, diamond shaped stylearms. The signals are small and white, veined with blue-purple. As a garden subject it is tall, dark and handsome. HC 1993. Forrest McCord X Springs Brook. $30.00. Joe Pype Weed's Garden. |
