From AIS Bulletin #217 April 1975 Introducing CLASSIC TOUCH-TB, 36", Mid-season. (Triton X Gaily Clad). A sib to Emerald Touch, the 1973 introduction so popular when seen in the Rees garden during the regional convention that year; but this is a very different iris. Classic Touch is a self of an unusual hyacinth blue tone, with a contrasting orange beard so wide and brilliant that it lights up the whole flower. Big, ruffled blooms; closed, arched stands; flaring falls; four branches; ten buds. A jewel in the garden! Net $25.00. Edgar Sellman.
