Rococo X sib to Tea Apron. $20.00. John Humphrey.
For a late blooming plic, John Humphrey's ANGEL'S ART fills the bill. He hasn't decided if he will introduce the HC-winning beauty or not. It has many fine points as a result of its parents Rococo and a sib to Tea Apron. [Mullin, Ron (1971). Irises I Like, American Iris Society Bulletin 204(January 1972), 13.]
