Hybridizer's Comment: So ruffled that the reverse side of the falls show their colour adding to its intrigue. Standards are lilac-lavender. Falls are rich violet with 1/4" well defined lilac edge and a white heavily veined pattern each side of the beards. The reverse side of the falls show lilac. Ruffled, fluted and waved. Some show stems, but variable. Such a striking and joyous Iris. We love it. |
