From AIS Bulletin #220 January 1976 Introducing CHARTREUSE RUFFLES 1976 No. 73-X1: 70-85 X Louise Watts. Midseason TB 30". This is the most exciting iris that we have produced so far. Almost perfect form in exciting shades of lilac-pink, greenish white and chartreuse-yellow. Tight standards are a delicate shade of lilac-pink with a faint chartreuse edge. Very laced, waved and ruffled. The wide, round and flaring falls are very laced and ruffled of greenish white with a wide chartreuse-yellow edge. The lilac-pink styles are very laced with a chartreuse edge. A pleasing white tipped yellow beard. Heavy substance. Three branches and terminal with 7 buds. Plant habits are excellent and fertile both ways. A very interesting new departure in coloring. HC '74. Rudolph. |
