Hybridizer's Comment: Strong rich red-burgundy with slightly more plush red burgundy falls. Beards are bright mustard. Flowers are beautifufly balanced and ruffled with three out at once making a great early show iris. Lots ot flowers on rapidly establishing clumps. Fertile and coming from a varied pedigree, we expect good things to come from its seedlings. We have used it a lot. Musky perturne. |
