From Tempo Two catalog, 2014: BRUSHWORK (Blyth 2014 Aust) E-M 36”. A stunning plicata that continues to entrance us whenever we see it. Standards are soft beige with just a hint of lavender veining. Falls are white with a ¼” edge of dotting and stitching, deepening slightly at the hafts. There are a few vertical lines going partially down the falls. Beards are old gold to bronze. Flowers are so wide and lightly ruffed. Show stems. Not a rapid increaser but makes good plants. It is an interesting Iris genetically because neither parent is a plicata, yet plicatas show up way back in the pedigrees of both sides. Another Woman has given us some good plicatas. Brushwork has given lovely seedlings, both plicatas and non plicatas and is also a super grandparent. (Another Woman X (O303-A: (L1304-1: Platinum Class sib x (M31-1: Wearing Rubies x Ennoble)).) Sdlg No. S262-C. $75.00. |
