From Schreiner’s catalog, 1964: FLAMENCO DANCER (Schreiner 1964) M. 37'. This vibrant rich reel is notable as the first reael iris with a conspicuous ruffle. In the garden a clump literally gives off a flash of fire like the swirling flame-colored skirts in the famous Spanish dance. Not a sombre reel but a brilliant reel iris in the "must-have" category. Flamenco Dancer has exceptional garden value for a reel iris. Destined for wide popularity. Not a huge iris, note its swirling form as our picture shows on page 3. Seedling No. R 410- 1. $20.00. |
