References:

From Schreiner's Iris catalog, 1949: CONFETTI (Schreiner 1949) EM. 38". A most unusual plicata. Confetti is the first tall, wellbranched pink plicata with large flowers and very heavy substance. It is a striking flower delightfully flared, beautiful in form and fresh in appearance. The markings and stipplings are pink on creamy white without the pearly sub-tint present in so many of this kind. The branching, placement on the stem and smart, trim carriage of the flowers are extra good. Confetti is pretty, bright and snappy. Notice the illustration on the front cover. $15.00.
