References:

From Schreiner’s catalog, 1963: GLISTENING SNOW (Schreiner 1963) M. 38". $15.00. We sincerely believe that this is one of the finest white iris thus far produced. It continues the line breeding out of Snowy Heron, achieving a whiteness as perfect as that of Celestial Snow and a form as classic as that of Cliffs of Dover. A very full bodied flower with magnificent petal breadth and serene yet flaring form. Nicely ruffled. A rugged grower with excellent branching and heavily budded stems, assuring a long season of bloom. Glistening Snow is perfection itself. R616-3.
